Mental health providers are trained in FMF Connect Pro with ECHO (Extension of Community Healthcare Outcomes) tele-mentoring. FMF Connect Pro teaches mental health providers how to do routine screening of prenatal alcohol exposure, diagnose fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD), and support caregivers in using the FMF Connect app. The FMF Connect Pro Dashboard organizes intervention content for providers and includes tools for client progress monitoring. In this arm, providers receive training in FMF Connect Pro through 13 bi-weekly ECHO tele-mentoring sessions. Each ECHO session involves brief didactic presentations by Hub Team members on FASD-informed care principles and FMF Connect content and case-based discussions and recommendations by Spoke Sites.
Mental health providers are trained in FMF Connect Pro with self-directed materials. FMF Connect Pro teaches mental health providers how to do routine screening of prenatal alcohol exposure, diagnose fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD), and support caregivers in using the FMF Connect app. The FMF Connect Pro Dashboard organizes intervention content for providers and includes tools for client progress monitoring. In this arm, mental health providers will access similar didactic content as ECHO participants, but in an asynchronous format on the FMF Connect Pro Dashboard. This will include pre-recorded videos, activities, and additional resources for further learning.
The waitlist comparison group will receive FMF Connect Pro via Self-directed materials after completing assessments at the 6-month timepoint.
