Note: Intervention-by- vulnerable subgroups interaction models used multiple imputed data, weighted for eligible sample for enrollment and accounted for the design effect of the cluster randomization. A linear regression model was used for a continuous variable (presented as between-group difference) or a logistic regression model for a binary variable (presented as odds ratio, OR), adjusted for baseline status of the dependent variable, age, education, race/ethnicity, 12-month depressive disorder and community and accounted for the design effect of the cluster randomization; no significant interactions of intervention by poverty status were found for all outcome variables.
