Schools in six counties provided lists of 10th-grade students from which participants were selected randomly. During recruitment and prior to randomization, families were told that they would participate in a five-session program to build family skills that would promote adolescent well-being. A complete description of the recruitment process is provided in Brody et al. (2012) and Kogan et al. (2012). Of the 692 families screened, 638 (91%) were eligible to participate; of the eligible families, 502 (79%) agreed to take part in the study. Of the families recruited, 252 were assigned randomly to SAAF–T and 250 to the control. Of the families who provided data at pretest, 478 (95%) provided data 22 months later at long-term follow-up, 237 in the SAAF–T group and 241 in the control group. No demographic differences emerged between these families and the 24 families who left the study.
