Background: Family management (FM) challenges of maternal caregivers of young adult survivors of childhood brain tumors are well documented, but there are no evidence-based caregiver interventions to improve FM.
Objectives: The aims of this study were to (1) generate the knowledge necessary for developing a caregiver intervention (stage 0) and (2) modify an existing, efficacious intervention by engaging stakeholders (stage 1).
Methods: Stages 0 and 1 of the National Institutes of Health Stage Model for Behavioral Intervention Development and the FM Styles Framework were used in this study.
