Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
AMP-CARE
Parents will attend the 6 virtual sessions with a group of about 5-10 parents and 2 facilitators. The AMP-CARE group sessions are held for about 90 minutes once per week. Sessions include didactics, role playing, vignettes, and weekly home practice to build positive parenting techniques.
Adolescent Mental Health Parenting Program for Child-Adult Relationship Enhancement (AMP-CARE)
The goals of AMP-CARE are to teach parents how to form a positive relationship with their teen and to teach about typical adolescent development and mental health. Each AMP-CARE session will be led by 1 or 2 trainers. About 4 to 13 parents will attend each virtual session lasting approximately 1.5 hours. Sessions will be weekly for 6 weeks. Participants are encouraged to practice the skills learned at AMP-CARE between the sessions.
Waitlist Control
Parents in the control group will be offered the intervention after completing the second study questionnaire.
