NCT ID NCT06236100
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether adding a trained family advocate to a proven parenting program can help prevent substance use and reduce childhood trauma. About 360 families from 36 high-risk communities in New Jersey will take part. The goal is to see if extra support makes the program more effective at stopping substance use before it starts.

Strengthening Families Program with or without a Family Advocate
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a proven way to prevent substance use and reduce the impact of childhood trauma in communities that need it most.
What could go wrong
This is a behavioral study, not a drug trial, so results depend on how well families engage. It is also limited to specific communities, so findings may not apply everywhere.
