Incompatibility between evidence-based treatments (EBTs) and the cultural values, practices, and minoritized experiences of Latine youth and families contributes to racial-ethnic disparities in mental health treatment engagement and consequently mental health outcomes. The proposed study aims to develop and pilot a novel tool - the Culturally Responsive Assessment, Formulation, and Treatment Tool (CRAFTT) - for helping clinicians decide whether, when, and how to culturally adapt EBTs for individual Latine youth clients and thereby improve the cultural compatibility of EBTs for this underserved population. Completion of this study will result in a functional decision support tool designed to improve the quality and effectiveness of mental health services for Latine youths and promote mental health equity.
