Study Summary

This trial is investigating a culturally adapted version of an evidence-based parenting intervention delivered to parents of Hispanic immigrants in mid-Texas. The intervention is designed to help parents with common parenting challenges, and the trial will measure implementation barriers and outcomes to inform a future study on scaling the intervention.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for Hispanic or Latino parents, aged 18 or older, who are first-generation immigrants in mid-Texas. They must speak Spanish and face financial challenges. Their family should include a US-born child aged 12-14 with reported behavior issues. Participants need to consent to join a parenting program.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests CAPAS-Youth, an adaptation of the GenerationPMTO intervention designed for Hispanic immigrant parents. It aims to refine this faith-based program within churches and understand barriers to its implementation among underserved communities.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this is a behavioral intervention focusing on parenting skills rather than medical treatment, there are no direct physical side effects expected from participating in the CAPAS-Youth program.
