Abstract |
This article describes a multisite evaluation designed to identify promising practices for children exposed to multiple violence types, as well as their caregivers. The interventions improved emotional and behavioral symptoms for children and decreased caregiver stress related to parenting. Regression analyses were run to determine which intervention topics and intervention formats for child services were associated with child symptom reduction. Additional regression analyses explored which intervention topics and intervention formats for caregiver services were associated with symptom reduction for caregivers as well as their children. Insights drawn from these analyses might be helpful to agencies seeking to improve their services for young children who have been exposed to violence. |
