In order to identify psychological stress in children and adolescents of mentally ill parents as early as possible, four special intervention programs (CHIMPS-therapy, CHIMPS-Prevention-single, CHIMPS-MFT-group, iCHIMPS) have been developed. These four intervention programs are based on the initial medical situation, indication and need of the families. Thereby, an individually tailored counseling service will be provided. With this current project, the four counseling approaches will be tested at 19 study sites in 12 federal states in Germany. Moreover, the interventions long-term efficacy will be evaluated.
