Résumé :	Mothers of children with disabilities can experience compromised health. Targeted interventions require investigation to determine effectiveness. Healthy Mothers Healthy Families (HMHF) is a health, wellbeing and empowerment program that addresses mothers need to protect, and or, recover their own health due to caregiving impacts. This study compared the effectiveness of HMHF e-workshops online compared to no intervention. The HMHF e-workshops were delivered to 290 mothers across the 2020-2022 Covid-19 pandemic and 172 participated in research. The HMHF e-workshops included 3 online 2- hour workshops facilitated by credentialled peer-facilitators, closed online group chat, e-workbook and online learning package. Participants in both groups completed surveys pre and post the workshops (or control) over 8-10 weeks. Mothers who participated in HMHF significantly increased health help seeking behaviours (p < .001), and improved mental health and health behaviors over time: health behavior (p < .001), positive wellbeing (p < .004) and depression (p < .001) and stress symptoms (p = .005). Compared to controls, HMHF e-workshop participants significantly improved health behaviours (p < .001) and self-reported symptoms of depression (p = .002) and stress (p = .005) over 8-10 weeks. E-workshops were accessible and effective for mothers of children with high care needs and family responsibilities across the COVID-19 pandemic. Compared to no intervention, the HMHF intervention was more effective for improving healthy behaviours and mental health.
