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.

What this could lead to

If it works, this could provide an evidence-based program to strengthen urban American Indian families and reduce teen substance use, depression, and risky behaviors.

What could go wrong

This is a Phase 2 trial with 1,440 participants, so results are not yet proven. The program relies on self-reported outcomes, which may be biased, and effects may vary across different communities.
