The goal is to develop, refine, and test the feasibility and acceptability of a dyadic, resiliency intervention ("Resilient Families;" R-FAM) that aims to reduce emotional distress and improve relationships among parents in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). To achieve this goal, my aims are three-fold: (1) develop R-FAM using stakeholder input from interviews with parent dyads and focus groups with NICU staff; (2) optimize R-FAM through an open pilot with pre/post assessments and exit interviews; and (3) test R-FAM for feasibility and acceptability through a randomized clinical trial of R-FAM compared with a minimally enhanced usual control (MEUC).
