    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Family Empowerment Scale (FES)
    A 34 item self reported instrument designed to measure empowerment status. The scale measures levels of empowerment, such as family, service system and community, and is rated on a likert scale, scale, ranging from1 (not true at all) to 5 (very true). The FES produces scores for three subscales based on level of empowerment:Family (12 items), Service system (12 items), and Community/ Political (10 items).
    Patient Activation Measure (PAM)
    100-point quantifiable scale determining patient engagement in healthcare

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    This study proposes to adapt an evidence based peer parent navigator (PPN) intervention, called Parent Connectors, in which trained and supervised PPNs deliver weekly telephone-based support for six to nine months to parents or caregivers of all newly enrolled youth or young adults (Y/YA) in FEP services. This PPN model will be used to enhance the delivery of Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC) for Y/YA in New York's state program for FEP, called OnTrackNY (OTNY). This research project has potential to add value to the CSC model through the inclusion of a feasible, low burden intervention that may improve family participation in services and Y/YA outcomes. Using random assignment, this study will examine the feasibility and preliminary impact of an accelerator strategy-the inclusion of peer parent navigators or PPNs-in CSC teams.
