What this trial studies

This study aims to adapt the ATTACH™ parenting program for online delivery to support parents dealing with depression, addiction, domestic violence, and poverty, particularly in the context of challenges posed by COVID-19. The program has previously been effective in in-person formats and will now be co-designed with mothers and health-service providers to create a user-friendly web and mobile interface. The study will involve phases of user engagement, prototyping, and software development to ensure the program meets the needs of families. The goal is to provide a safe and accessible resource for vulnerable families to improve their mental health and parenting skills.
