The University of Southern California received a $830,053 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865). The grant, titled "Parental Well-Being and Child Development," aims to develop and test the Msingi Bora Familia (MBF) intervention, which integrates father-inclusive, gender-equitable, and family-focused curricula into the existing Msingi Bora (MB) responsive parenting program. The study will conduct a 3-arm cluster randomized controlled trial in rural Kenya to compare the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of engaging only mothers versus engaging both parents (couples) in improving parenting behaviors, family well-being, and early childhood development outcomes. The project will collect data on child cognitive and socioemotional development, parental caregiving behaviors and mental health, intimate partner violence, gender attitudes, and relationship quality, with a second follow-up survey two years later to assess sustained impacts. The goal is to generate rigorous evidence on the role of fathers in child development and to determine if their inclusion enhances the effectiveness and sustainability of parenting interventions in low- and middle-income countries.
