Opportunities to increase well-child care engagement for families affected by maternal opioid use disorder: perceptions of mothers and clinicians.
The objectives of this qualitative study were to gather in-depth information regarding maternal and clinician-reported factors that facilitate or hinder well-child care (WCC) engagement as well as information from mothers' experiences during WCC visits. Thirty mothers in treatment for parental opioid use disorder (OUD) and 13 clinicians working at a pediatric primary care clinic participated by completing one telephone session which involved a brief questionnaire followed by a semi-structured interview. Facilitators identified by mothers and clinicians, included continuity of care, addressing material needs, and clinician OUD training and knowledge. Barriers to WCC included: stigma toward mothers with OUD, gaps in basic parenting knowledge, competing specialized health care needs, and insufficient time to address concerns.

Pathways linking family stress to youth delinquency and substance use: exploring the mediating roles of self-efficacy and future orientation.
African American adolescents in poorer neighborhoods experience significant sanctions related to drug use and delinquency. In this study, the investigators examined whether high self-esteem and positive future orientation mediated parental stress and youth substance use and delinquency. The investigators concluded that major findings indicated that self-esteem mediated the relationship between family stress and both drug use and delinquency.
