Piloting a Learning Collaborative for School-Based Bilingual Providers Delivering Evidence-Based Interventions
Starting soon · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Acculturative Stress, Mental Health
In brief
This pilot feasibility trial is designed to evaluate an adapted Learning Collaborative (LC) as an implementation strategy to support delivery of the Supporting Transition Resilience of Newcomer Groups (STRONG) intervention in school settings serving newcomer youth. The LC will support bilingual school-based mental health providers delivering STRONG, a group-based, school-delivered behavioral intervention targeting stress, anxiety, depressive symptoms, and externalizing behaviors among newcomer middle school students. STRONG will be facilitated by bilingual providers with participating students and their caregivers completing pre- and post-intervention surveys assessing youth emotional and behavioral well-being. The primary aim is to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness of the LC for supporting school-based implementation of STRONG, with feasibility measured by participation in LC activities and completion of implementation supports, and acceptability and appropriateness assessed through provider and leader feedback. Secondary aims include examining whether provider and school leader engagement in LC activities is associated with STRONG implementation fidelity and youth outcomes, and exploring potential mechanisms linking LC engagement to fidelity, including provider self-efficacy, leadership support, and team psychological safety. School-based providers and school leaders (e.g., principals and superintendents) will participate in LC activities focused on shared learning, collaboration, and implementation problem-solving, along with ongoing supports such as structured team support calls, Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycles, and feedback forms during STRONG implementation cycles.
