Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

In this two-arm randomized trial, 200 father–child pairs will be assigned to FIND-F or a waitlist control. The program uses filmed interactions and teachable modules focused on five components of nurturing parenting, assessed at baseline, after the program, and six months later. Primary outcomes center on fathers' supportive parenting, with secondary measures for child and parent well-being and potential mechanisms of change. The waitlist design ensures ethical access, with the control group receiving FIND-F after the 6-month follow-up.
