Trial of the Families Moving Forward (FMF) Connect Mobile Health Intervention

Feasibility Trial of the FMF Connect Mobile Health Intervention

The purpose of this study is to test a new smartphone "app" for parents/caregivers of children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD). The app is called Families Moving Forward (FMF) Connect. The goal of the app is to provide parents/caregivers with useful information to help manage their children's condition and obtain peer support.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Biological parent or other primary caregiver (e.g., foster or adoptive parent, relative, legal guardian) of a child with FASD or prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE)
• The parent/caregiver must be at least 18 years old
• The child must between the ages of 3 and 12 years old
• The child has a diagnosis of FASD or has confirmed PAE
• The child has lived with the parent/caregiver for at least 4 months and is expected to remain in the home for at least 1 year
• The parent/caregiver lives in the United States
• The parent/caregiver has a smartphone with iOS or Android operating system

Exclusion Criteria:

• The parent/caregiver is not fluent in English (the FMF Connect app and pre-post measures are currently only available in English)
• There is another parent/caregiver of the same child or living in the home that is already enrolled in the study (couples are excluded to prevent dependence in the data)
• The family has previously received or is currently receiving the therapist-led Families Moving Forward (FMF) Program
