Many families screened in primary care for social challenges to identify psychosocial needs of caregivers and children do not receive the follow-up support they need. This study will test a new clinic-based approach, CARELOOP, designed to improve how families are referred to and connected with services. Using community input and a method called Process Service Mapping, the project will tailor clinic workflows and evaluate the approach's impact through a randomized trial. The goal is to improve care coordination and reduce health disparities.
