Family Mental Health Family Navigator Project (FMHN)

This study, called the Family Mental Health Family Navigator Project (FMHN), is testing a family-based mental health navigation program combined with mobile health (mHealth) practices. The goal is to see if this program can help publicly-insured youth, aged 6 to 17, start and stay engaged with mental health treatment. You might be able to join if you are between 6 and 17, speak English or Spanish, are currently receiving services at San Francisco General Hospital, have public insurance, and your family has mobile phone access. The researchers will measure how quickly youth get referred to treatment, start treatment, and stay engaged with treatment over 12 months. The current status of this study is unclear.
