Group I: Experimental GroupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Behavioral: Strengths to Grow Program In an online, self-directed format, the Strengths to Grow: Preteen program will present the principles of strength-based parenting using videos, pictures, reflection questions, and written text. The intervention will communicate that a) every child has a unique set of strengths and that b) noticing and developing these strengths can enhance child and family well-being. It will also provide concrete steps that parents can follow to talk with their child about strengths, and it will provide ideas for family activities that would allow family members to express strengths. Participants will be invited to respond to reflection questions at various points throughout the program.
