Summary

This pilot study tested a program called PRE-CARE for 54 low-income families of preschoolers with ADHD symptoms. The program helps families find and enroll in community resources like food assistance or housing support. Researchers wanted to see if this approach could reduce ADHD symptoms and improve access to resources.

What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could help reduce ADHD symptoms in preschoolers by addressing unmet social needs like food or housing.
What could go wrong
This was a small pilot study with only 54 participants, so results may not apply to all families. The program may not work for everyone.
