Summary
This study tests a 6-week group program called Working Out Dads (WOD) to see if it helps reduce mental health struggles in fathers of children aged 0-4. About 293 dads with mild to moderate distress will either join the WOD peer-support group or receive usual care. The goal is to see if talking with other dads in a structured setting can lower anxiety and depression symptoms.
