What this trial studies

This pilot trial evaluates the Engaging Families home practice smartphone application designed to enhance caregiver engagement in a family-based prevention program. The app aims to improve the home practice of intervention skills among caregivers by providing digital support. Participants will be assigned to either use the Engaging Families app or a scheduling app, and their experiences regarding the app's acceptability and feasibility will be assessed through surveys and interviews. The study focuses on caregivers enrolled in the Bridges program, which addresses youth substance use and mental health.
