Summary

Child Trends will conduct a randomized control trial evaluation of Parent Toolkit 2.0, an innovative intervention for parents and caregivers of middle and high school students. Child Trends will collaborate with Morehouse School of Medicine and Tressa Tucker \& Associates, LLC to implement and evaluate the program with 1,000 parent-teen pairs across Georgia. The program includes three components that will be delivered across a three-week period: (1) an online self-paced Parent Guide with information, tips, tools, and resources on adolescent health, including sexual health; (2) four videos modeling parent-teen communication around sex and contraception; and (3) two group-based sessions for parent participants to discuss program content and improve communication skills. The program aims to increase parent knowledge and parent-teen communication about adolescent health, sexual health, and relationships to help youth adopt health-promoting behaviors such as delaying sexual initiation and increasing contraceptive use.

Morehouse Family Health Study's Parent Toolkit 2.0

Parent Toolkit 2.0 is designed to equip parents and caregivers with skills to talk to their teens about sex and contraception and ultimately influence their teens' decision-making and behaviors around sex. The Georgia Campaign for Adolescent Power \& Potential (GCAPP) developed the Parent Toolkit intervention. Morehouse School of Medicine's (MSM) Health Promotion Research Center tested and adapted it through an OPA Innovation Network grant, creating Parent Toolkit 2.0.
