The CUIDAR Early Intervention Parent Training Program for Preschoolers at Risk for Behavioral Disorders: An Innovative Practice for Reducing Disparities in Access to Service.

Researchers report mental health disparities that indicate that children and families with the highest need for services often are less likely to use them. Only a few investigators have focused on service delivery models to address underuse of services. This study examines the Children's Hospital of Orange County (CHOC)/University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) Initiative for the Development of Attention and Readiness (CUIDAR) model of service delivery in reducing disparities in access to and use of services and in decreasing child behavior problems in a community-based study with 169 self-referred, low-income, and predominantly minority families.
