A web based system is described for the delivery of evidence-based behavioral interventions in the home for a variety of mental health problems in children. The goal of the interventions is to teach parents and/or children new skills to enable them to better manage their problems without having to drive into the clinic for face-to-face therapy sessions. The first web based problem module, Disruptive Behavior, includes video clips, interactive modules, web based communication and communication with a human coach on a regular basis using the telephone. The preliminary findings of the first pilot test with 22 families are also discussed.
