Summary

This trial tests a Family Mental Health Navigator (FMHN) program for publicly insured youth aged 6-17 who are already receiving services at a San Francisco hospital. The program pairs families with a navigator who uses mobile health tools to help them get referrals and start treatment more quickly. The study measures how soon youth are referred, how soon they attend their first session, and whether they stay engaged for at least six weeks. The goal is to see if this family-based support can improve access to and engagement in mental health care.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Family-based mental health navigation combined with mobile health (mHealth) practices
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could offer a practical way to help more young people access and stick with mental health care, potentially reducing delays in treatment.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention's success depends on family engagement and mobile access, which may vary.
