In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The purpose of this study is to pilot the delivery of an mHealth intervention for caregivers to young people with early psychosis within a network of early psychosis intervention programs in the state of North Carolina. The investigators will examine the feasibility of recruitment through program outreach, develop North Carolina specific outreach resources to be used with the mHealth intervention and evaluate the effectiveness of this intervention for reducing caregiver psychological morbidity and improving family communication. The investigators will also collect pilot data to inform recruitment and development of implementation strategies for delivering Bolster within a statewide early psychosis network.
