Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Family Centered TreatmentExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
In the Family-Centered Treatment Arm, parents would be given the same list of mental health referrals and crisis numbers, but in this condition, they would authorize researchers to share their contact information with the partner agency, Catholic Charities, and would then be linked directly to bilingual adult mental health services there with a behavioral health provider who would provide collateral therapy to parents via telehealth. Although parents will be referred to the community partner for therapy as a part of the research intervention, the behavioral health providers at the community partner will be providing therapy as they usually do for these participants in line with their usual job duties.
Group II: Treatment as UsualActive Control1 Intervention
In the Treatment as Usual condition, parents will simply be given a list of mental health referrals and crisis numbers.
