Summary

This study tests whether telephone-based screening and care coordination can help children who have experienced adverse childhood events (ACEs) access services like mental health care, developmental support, and material resources. Families are randomly assigned to receive either usual care or usual care plus up to six months of phone-based support from a care coordinator. The study tracks whether children receive needed services and whether parents and children show improvements in health and well-being over one year.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Telephone-based screening and care coordination
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could provide a scalable way to connect vulnerable children with mental health, developmental, and material support services, potentially improving long-term outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is a behavioral intervention study, not a drug trial. Results depend on family engagement and service availability, and benefits may vary widely. The study is relatively small and may not generalize to all communities.
