Description

Erika L Gustafson and sixteen colleagues laid out in 2026 a three-phase plan to test therapy delivered in Spanish by community health workers for Latine parents. Latine families with limited English face unequal access to mental health care, and the chosen therapy, called CETA, is designed for lay providers with little prior training.

Phase one adapts the therapy to local needs with partners, phase two studies training and context, and phase three runs a pilot trial comparing immediate therapy with a five-month wait. Outcomes cover attendance, symptoms, fidelity, and interviews on feasibility and acceptability. The project aims to establish proof of concept before wider rollout.
