Summary

This study tests a technology-enhanced version of SafeCare, a home visiting program that helps parents keep children safe. Researchers will work with 12 providers and 40 caregivers to see if a mix of in-person and virtual sessions can reach more families and improve parenting skills. The goal is to prevent child maltreatment and reduce harm to children.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Technology Enhanced Implementation Package and SafeCare home visiting program
What this could lead to
If successful, this could improve how home visiting programs reach families in need and reduce child maltreatment.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study with only 62 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention is still being tested for feasibility.
