This $578,572 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (CFDA 93.307 Minority Health and Health Disparities Research) supports the cultural adaptation and pilot testing of the Family Check-Up Online (FCU Online), a web-based intervention designed to reduce mental health problems and substance use among Hispanic youth.

The key products and services delivered through this award include:

  1. Culturally adapting the FCU Online modules and online portal for promotores de salud (Spanish-speaking community health workers) to improve access and engagement for Latino families.
  2. Conducting a pilot trial with 10 Hispanic families and 5 promotores de salud to assess the feasibility, accessibility, and commercial potential of the adapted FCU Online intervention.
  3. Integrating qualitative and quantitative data to identify barriers and facilitators to using the adapted FCU Online program.

The findings from this Phase 1 study will inform a future Phase 2 randomized controlled trial to further test the effectiveness of the culturally adapted FCU Online intervention in a real-world setting, with the goal of scaling up dissemination to Spanish-speaking populations.
