Family STEPS: Family Check-Up+ (NCT07433361)
CHAMPP4KIDS: Family STEPS: Tailored, Stepped Prevention Strategy Using the Family Check-Up+
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Interventions that promote safe, stable, and nurturing relationships between caregivers and children are key to improving healthy family relationships, reducing child socioemotional and behaviour problems, and preventing child maltreatment. Although a broad range of parenting programs are currently implemented in communities across Ontario, most programs are inadequately evaluated, or else not evaluated at all using a pilot pragmatic Hybrid Type II individually randomized controlled trial conducted within routine service settings. The trial will enroll 300 families in Ontario, Canada. The evaluation is informed by the RE-AIM framework, with a primary emphasis on Reach and Implementation and secondary examination of Effectiveness, consistent with the objectives of a Hybrid Type II design.
