NCT ID NCT05910502
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a parent coaching and family navigation program (Project AFECT) can help families right after a child is diagnosed with autism. About 200 parents of children aged 1 to 5, who are Hispanic/Latino, Black/African-American, or have Medi-Cal insurance, will take part. The goal is to see if the program lowers parent stress, boosts confidence, and helps children get early services faster.
