Summary

This trial will test the efficacy of the Family Check-Up Online, an evidence-based program for reducing high-risk behavior, enhancing parenting skills, and preventing substance use among families with young children, in a rural, telehealth context.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for parents or legal guardians in rural Oregon with children aged 18 months to 5 years, who are willing to use a telehealth program aimed at improving parenting. Participants must have a smartphone and access to email, acknowledge binge drinking or drug use within the last year, or feel depressed recently.
What is being tested?
The study tests the Family Check-Up Online (FCU Online), designed to enhance parenting skills and prevent opioid misuse among parents. It involves coaching via telehealth and focuses on stress management, self-regulation, and building positive parent-child relationships.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention is non-medical and educational in nature focusing on improving parenting practices through online guidance, there are no direct medical side effects associated with traditional clinical interventions.
