Parent-focused Primary Prevention of Child Sexual Abuse: An Effectiveness-implementation Hybrid Trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of a parent-focused child sexual abuse prevention program (Smart Parents) delivered to parents enrolled in a parent education program (Parents as Teachers; PAT). The main questions the trial aims to answer are: 1. Does PAT + Smart Parents improve parents' CSA-related awareness and protective behaviors compared to PAT as usual? 2. Are potential gains maintained 12- and 24-months post intervention? 3. What parent-, provider-, and organizational-level factors hold promise for future dissemination and implementation efforts?
