Focus Groups for Families of Children with ADHD Symptoms and Emotional Dysregulation

This study is gathering information through focus groups with Black or Hispanic/Latino parents, caregivers, or family members. You can join if you are an adult (18-80 years old) and have a family member aged 6-18 with suspected Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and/or emotional dysregulation (difficulty managing feelings). The focus groups will discuss your child's mental health, treatments, and care, as well as any challenges you might face in participating in future research studies. The goal is to understand what families need and what might prevent them from joining a future study about multinutrient interventions. Success for this study means gathering valuable feedback to help design that future study better.
