Summary
This study tests a 10-week parenting program called Parenting in 2 Worlds (P2W), designed specifically for urban American Indian families. Researchers will compare it to a general health program in four U.S. cities with 1,440 parent-teen pairs. The goal is to see if P2W improves family relationships and reduces teen substance use, depression, and risky sexual behavior.
