Original description
This study will evaluate a virtual mental health parenting stepped-care intervention (I-InTERACT-North) to determine if the program works to improve positive parenting skills and child behaviour among families with children born with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD). Recruitment will target children ages 3-9 years old from SickKids. We will also evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of the program among children and families to inform future delivery and multi-site trials.
