  • Clinic-Based Financial Coaching and Family Health and Development

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

  • Healthcare Providers as Trusted Messengers to Increase Receipt of Tax Credits Among Low-income Families

    open to eligible people ages 18-99

    The purpose of this study is to pilot test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of healthcare provider referrals to a tax filing app within parent-child health programs to test whether such referrals can increase receipt of tax credits among low-income parents. The study will use a single-group, pre/post test design with a sample of approximately 100 women who have a child under 6 years of age. Participants will be recruited from parental-child health programs and clinics in Los Angeles and will complete surveys at baseline, immediately after tax filing season, and six months after tax filing season to assess 1) frequency of tax filing after referral (Feasibility), 2) the acceptability of the tax filing app from the perspective of users (Acceptability), and 3) pre/posttest changes to parent and child health, child development, and healthcare utilization measures for users (preliminary efficacy).

  • Testing a Scalable Model For ACEs-Related Care Navigation

    open to eligible people ages up to 11 years

    The study is a randomized controlled trial of a telephone-based care coordination system for families who experienced Adverse Childhood Events (ACEs). The investigators will conduct the study in partnership with Kaiser Permanente School of Medicine (KPSOM) and 2-1-1 Los Angeles County (211LA), part of a national network of 2-1-1 call centers covering 93% of the US population. The study will test the effectiveness of 211LA in increasing referrals and services for families who screen positive for ACEs.

  • Achieving My Potential: A Randomized, Controlled Trial of a Telephone-Based Developmental Care Coordination System

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    The proposed project is a randomized controlled trial of a telephone-based early childhood developmental care coordination system, in partnership with 2-1-1 Los Angeles County (211LA), part of a national network of 2-1-1 call centers covering 93% of the US population. The study will test the effectiveness of 211LA in increasing referrals for developmental evaluation, increasing the numbers of children deemed eligible for services, and increasing the number of children actually receiving interventions.

  • Examination of Infants' Microbiome, Nutrition, and Development Study.

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This study is examining the relationship between infant nutrition, gut health, and development. The fecal microbiota changes and develops, in large part due to the food that infants eat. These changes are important for many aspects of development. This study is designed to examine how the fecal microbiota changes when exclusively breastfed infants are first introduced to solid food, and how changes of the fecal microbiota are related to other aspects of development.

  • Pilot Study: A Telehealth Intervention for Caregivers of Infants With Early Signs of ADHD

    Sorry, accepting new patients by invitation only

    This project will build on the investigators' work focused on early identification of ADHD, expanding to the development of a feasibility/pilot intervention involving early intervention for such infants. The investigators will evaluate the effectiveness of a telehealth-delivered, caregiver-implemented supportive intervention for infants/toddlers show early self-regulation difficulties.

  • El Sendero: Pathways to Health Study

    Sorry, accepting new patients by invitation only

    This project will continue to follow two birth cohorts of mother-infant Latino dyads through a series of new assessments at age 6y, with an emphasis on examining the the role early nutritional exposures, exposures to environmental toxins, and social determinants of health have on adiposity, eating behaviors, brain structure and function, cognitive outcomes, and chronic disease risk.
