Access child template helpers/variables from parent in Meteor

Making a user picker controller and am having trouble getting the users out from parent.

Parent template has

{{> userPicker}}

Child updates reactive vars, stored as this.someVar = new ReactiveVar(...).

How do I get a ref to this of userPicker from parent template?

I ended up passing a dictionary by reference from the parent and had the child put stuff into it.

In parent html

{{> userPicker userContext }}

In parent js

const users = {};

And as helper

userContext() {
  return users;
}
