PROJECT SUMMARY (See instructions): This project seeks to improve the knowledge and skills of parents of children 0-5 years of age through a cultural relevant parenting curriculum, Smart & Secure Children (SSC), as a strategy for reducing disparities in health. The SSC was developed with local community parents through a collaborative community-based participatory research process. The SSC curriculum is designed to increase quality parenting knowledge and skills and mental well being as protective factors for parents in order to reduce the negative impact of poverty and related risk factors affecting children's preschool ability and behavioral health. These risk factors ultimately lead to health disparities, particularly in mental health. Specifically, the proposed research will determine the effectiveness of two delivery methods of SSC (intervention arms) relative to a control arm (social participation and interaction) in: 1) improving knowledge of quality parenting, quality parenting skills, and mental health well-being of parents and 2) the subsequent impact of improved quality parenting on the children's pre-school readiness and social and behavioral health. The project will use a cluster of randomized, controlled trial study design, to assess improvements in quality parenting and mental well-being among parent participants (i.e., mothers, father and grandparents) with each of the intervention arms being compared to the improvements among parent in the control arm. Trained parent leaders within each targeted neighborhoods will recruit parents from their formal and informal social networks to become parent participants in the social participation learning groups of the proposed study. Recruited parent participants of each social network (or cluster) will be randomly allocated to one of three distinct arms, each facilitated by trained parent leaders. Knowledge, skills, and mental well-being of participating parents will be measured at base-line and immediately at post-intervention intervals for a total of five (5) post-intervention parent assessments. Baseline pilot assessment of children pre-school readiness and behavioral health will be conducted at intervals as recommended by the standard tools.

项目摘要（请参阅说明）： 该项目旨在通过文化相关的育儿课程，聪明和安全的儿童（SSC）来提高0-5岁儿童父母的知识和技能，以此来减少健康差异。 SSC是通过基于社区的协作参与研究过程与当地社区父母一起开发的。 SSC课程旨在提高质量的育儿知识和技能和精神福祉，成为父母的保护因素，以减少影响儿童学前能力和行为健康的贫困和相关风险因素的负面影响。这些风险因素最终导致健康差异，尤其是心理健康方面。 具体而言，拟议的研究将确定相对于控制臂（社交参与和互动）的两种SSC（干预组）交付方法的有效性：1）提高对质量育儿的知识，质量育儿技能以及父母的心理健康福祉，以及2）改善孩子的学龄前和社交和社交和社交和行为健康的影响。 该项目将使用一系列随机，对照试验研究设计，以评估父母参与者（即母亲，父亲和祖父母）之间对质量育儿和心理健康的改进，每个干预臂都与对照组中的父母之间的改善进行了比较。 每个有针对性的社区中训练有素的父母领导者将从其正式和非正式社交网络中招募父母，以成为拟议研究的社交参与学习小组的父母参与者。每个社交网络（或集群）的招募父母参与者将随机分配给三个不同的武器之一，每个武器都由受过训练的父母领导者促进。参与父母的知识，技能和心理福祉将以基础线和干预后的间隔进行衡量 五（5）次干预后父母评估。基线试点评估儿童学龄前准备和行为健康的评估将按照标准工具的建议隔离进行。
