The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new provider-assisted version of the caregiver Families Moving Forward (FMF) Connect app ("FMF Connect Pro") with mental health providers in the United States. In FMF Connect Pro, mental health providers learn to do routine screening for prenatal alcohol exposure, diagnose fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD), and support families in using the FMF Connect caregiver app. Two different training methods will be compared with a waitlist group in this study. The first training method involves 13-sessions of tele-mentoring using an Extension of Community Healthcare Outcomes (ECHO) approach. The second training method involves a self-directed approach in which providers will access similar content in any asynchronous format on a website. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * What is the proportion of agencies and providers who accept and participate in the clinical trial (Reach)? * Do study groups differ on provider outcome measures of Effectiveness (clients screened/diagnosed), Adoption (provider change in knowledge, self-efficacy), Implementation (practice change, FMF Connect Pro Dashboard usage), and Maintenance of FASD-informed care practice change? All mental health providers in the study will complete online assessments at study entry, 6 months, and 12 months.
