Parent Engagement Package: Initial Testing of Strategies to Increase Participation in Parenting Interventions

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Patient Compliance

In brief

This study evaluated the effectiveness of strategies for engaging parents into parenting programs. Engagement strategies included a booklet showing testimonial quotes and photos from prior participants, a recommendation to attend for the child's teacher, and a motivational call from the parenting program provider. It was hypothesized that the combination of engagement strategies would increase attendance at a parenting intervention compared to receiving only a promotional brochure and research interview.
