Summary

This trial will compare two methods of training mental health providers in the US to screen for FASD & use a caregiver app to better support families.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for mental health providers in the U.S. who work with children aged 3 to 12 or their families, are fluent in English, and have internet access. It's not for those working outside the U.S. or who don't serve this age group.
What is being tested?
The study tests 'FMF Connect Pro,' a tool helping providers screen for prenatal alcohol exposure and diagnose FASD. Providers will compare two training methods: a tele-mentoring ECHO approach and self-directed learning, against a waitlist control.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves educational interventions rather than medical treatments, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, participants may experience varying levels of comfort with technology or changes in workload.

Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: FMF (Families Moving Forward) Connect Pro with Self-directed materialsExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Mental health providers are trained in FMF Connect Pro with self-directed materials. FMF Connect Pro teaches mental health providers how to do routine screening of prenatal alcohol exposure, diagnose fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD), and support caregivers in using the FMF Connect app. The FMF Connect Pro Dashboard organizes intervention content for providers and includes tools for client progress monitoring. In this arm, mental health providers will access similar didactic content as ECHO participants, but in an asynchronous format on the FMF Connect Pro Dashboard. This will include pre-recorded videos, activities, and additional resources for further learning.
Group II: FMF (Families Moving Forward) Connect Pro with ECHO implementationExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Mental health providers are trained in FMF Connect Pro with ECHO (Extension of Community Healthcare Outcomes) tele-mentoring. FMF Connect Pro teaches mental health providers how to do routine screening of prenatal alcohol exposure, diagnose fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD), and support caregivers in using the FMF Connect app. The FMF Connect Pro Dashboard organizes intervention content for providers and includes tools for client progress monitoring. In this arm, providers receive training in FMF Connect Pro through 13 bi-weekly ECHO tele-mentoring sessions. Each ECHO session involves brief didactic presentations by Hub Team members on FASD-informed care principles and FMF Connect content and case-based discussions and recommendations by Spoke Sites.
Group III: Waitlist Comparison GroupActive Control1 Intervention
The waitlist comparison group will receive FMF Connect Pro via Self-directed materials after completing assessments at the 6-month timepoint.
