Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of the Strength at Home Parents intervention to treatment as usual in veterans enrolled for care at VA facilities in VISN 17 on parenting stress and parenting behaviors. The participant population will have elevated PTSD symptoms and parent-child functioning difficulties with an index child between the ages of 3-12. The main question\[s\]it aims to answer are: • Does Strength at Home Parents improve parenting stress and parenting behaviors in comparison to a no-treatment control condition? • Are gains maintained over time and is there a gender difference in efficacy? Participants will complete 4 online assessments, and if randomized to the intervention group they will complete an 8 week tele-health group program. If randomized to the control group participants will receive a link to the VA parenting resources website and any referrals they would like to have. Researchers will compare Strength at Home Parents to VA treatment as usual see if the group intervention improves parenting stress and behaviors above and beyond the existing resources.
