Focus Group

Black or Hispanic/Latino parents, caregivers or family members of children with ADHD symptoms and/or emotional dysregulation, will discuss: (1) impact of child's mental health, treatments, care received; (2) perceived and actual barriers to future study participation, including discussion about acceptability of bio-specimen collection methods for urine and blood. Each group will comprise individuals who self-identify as Hispanic/Latino, Black, or mixed race. Groups are anticipated to comprise individuals who identify with one or the the other race/ethnicity in order to create space to hear perspectives that may differ between these broadly defined groups.
