About this study
Official title: Effectiveness Trial of Methods for Engaging Parents Into Parenting Interventions
This study tests the effectiveness of different strategies for engaging parents into an evidence-based parenting skills intervention, the Triple P Positive Parenting Program, offered universally to parents of children attending one of six public elementary schools.
Read the detailed description
Parenting skills programs have been shown to help prevent youth substance use and mental health disorders. Unfortunately, few parents participate in parenting programs when given the opportunity. Thus, developing effective strategies to increase engagement in effective preventive parenting interventions is essential for these programs to have a significant public health impact. The purpose of this study is to identify parent engagement strategies that increase participation in effective parenting programs and consequently improve parenting practices and children's well-being.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Enrollment FlyerOther
Enrollment flyer that provided information about the Triple P Positive Parenting Program and an enrollment form.
Testimonial BookletOther
Booklet that included quotes and photos from parents who had previously participated in the Triple P Positive Parenting Program and/or their children who participated in the free childcare, as well as an enrollment form.
Teacher EndorsementOther
Brief conversation between the parent and their child's teacher in which the teacher told the parent about the benefits of participating in the Triple P Positive Parenting Program and recommended that the parent attend. The teacher also gave the parent a brochure that gave information about the Triple P program and an enrollment form.
Provider Engagement CallOther
This was a manualized, 15-minute call from the Triple P Positive Parenting Program provider to a parent in which the provider elicited the parent's child-focused goals and showed how the parent's goals could be addressed by Triple P. The provider also helped the parent anticipate and problem solve possible barriers to attendance.
