Description
- Abstract
- This center strategically addresses a key developmental driver of the youth mental health crisis: currently, 1 in 5 children has an identified mental health problem as early as age 3. This mental health, earlier (MHE) alac- rity research center addresses the grand challenge of achieving population-level impact of early childhood mental health prevention efforts within routine care. The center targets toddler transdiagnostic behavioral VUL- nerability at this pre-clinical phase to impact lifespan mental health. Pediatric primary care is a promising setting for achieving population impact, with broad reach to historically marginalized communities. Taking this to scale requires: (1) systematic incorporation of equity principles across all levels of implementation to ensure equitable adoption and reach of evidence-based interventions across diverse communities and families; and (2) leveraging novel pragmatic and accessible developmentally- and ecologically-based decision and prevention tools feasible for primary care integration. The center is northwestern based, including longstanding partnerships with lurie children's hospital, community health centers within alliancechicago's practice-based research network, and university of utah health. The center's connective thread is an equity-oriented implementation framework, HU- man-centered design methods, and a novel roll-out implementation optimization trial design, which systemat- ically engages partners in strategy optimization. Center aims: (1) develop novel caregiver-focused, system-, and clinician-level strategies to advance equitable implementation of early mental health interventions in pediat- RIC primary care; (2) address the unique needs of diverse communities and families via engagement in culturally attuned, evidence-based prevention services; (3) create a national resource for equitable implementation of childhood mental health innovation in pediatric primary care, including fostering a cadre of scientific and work- force leaders and experts, and an open access toolkit. Center signature project (SP) and research projects (RPS) innovate, implement, and integrated evidence-based equitable interventions and strategies, with RPS test- ING novel approaches and/or levels of inquiry designed to address recognized, but understudied, barriers: SP this cluster randomized trial implements an evidence-based toddler mental health risk decision tool with coordi- nated care to the family check-up online to support parenting and toddler self-regulation; RP1: deploys digital case-based training to improve clinician confidence and family-centered communication about toddler mental health risk within an anti-racist, culturally grounded framework; RP2: adapts an evidence-based adjunctive digital single-session intervention to increase families'mental health services use; RP3: explores unintended conse- quences of early mental health prevention via an integrated bioethical-implementation framework , including inequitable distribution of negative consequences. A community & scientific engagement & administrative core and methods incubation core provide vision, coordination, methodologic and career development supports to advance equitable implementation of mental health promotion for diverse primary care systems and families.
