| This application by the Allegheny General Hospital Center for Traumatic Stress in Children and Adolescents Intervention Development and Evaluation Center (AGH-IDE) proposes to continue our ongoing activities to refine, evaluate and disseminate our manualized treatments for child sexual abuse (CSA; occurring alone or in the context of multiple traumas), child physical abuse (CPA), and childhood traumatic grief (CTG). These treatments are trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Abuse-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Physically Abused Children and their Offending Parents (AF-CBT), and TF-CBT for Childhood Traumatic Grief (TF-CBT-CTG). TF-CBT has been tested extensively in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and found to be superior to other commonly provided treatments for improving Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and other problems in sexually abused and multiply traumatized children. It is recognized as a Model Program by the National Registry of Effective Programs for both sexual abuse and child traumatic stress. During the present grant we have developed individual and group TF-CBT-CTG treatment manuals, and have completed an open study of this treatment which supports the efficacy of the individual TF-CBT-CTG model in improving CTG, PTSD, depressive, anxiety and behavior problems in these children, as well as improving PTSD and depression in their participating parents. In the coming year we propose to strengthen our adherence instruments for all three treatments; begin the first wave of a NCTSN-wide dissemination study for TF-CBT and AFCBT; submit the AF-CBT and TF-CBT-CTG treatment models for evaluation by NREP; revise the TF-CBT-CTG manual from a 16-week to a l2-week protocol and collect pilot data on the 12-week protocol in anticipation of conducting multi-site RCT of this model and develop a train-the-trainer program for NCTSN members to become TF-CBT and AF-CBT trainers. | ||

| This project is to assess educators' needs for media literacy training both entry-level learners and experienced group learners; mobilize community members to support media literacy as a substance abuse prevention tool; and plan to develop media literacy educational resources for Pennsylvania teachers as a method to reduce youth substance abuse. The initial step is to analyze teachers' educational needs regarding media literacy. This educators' evaluability/needs survey is to determine teachers' educational maturity stage with respect to media literacy, their preferred venues to deliver media literacy training, and resources needed for professional development. Based on this needs survey, Drug Free Pennsylvania will develop a plan for learning content for media literacy, initiate community mobilization and develop a communications plan to engage various community representatives. | ||

| Project HYPE (Helping Youth Pursue Excellence) is a 5-year prevention research project being carried out in Philadelphia public schools by the Corporate Alliance for Drug Education (CADE). Project HYPE's purpose is to determine whether regular classroom instruction by trained prevention specialists, over a 5-year period starting in 4th grade, will help inner-city students (grades 4-8) reduce future substance abuse and perform better in school. Using the nationally recognized Here's Looking at You (HLAY) curriculum, CADE prevention specialists deliver weekly classroom presentations to classes throughout the school year in 4th through 8th grades. As an added enhancement, prevention specialists are available to meet individually and in small groups with at-risk students selected by schools. Project HYPE students are now completing 6th grade (year 3 of the research). This application requests continuation funding for year 4, when HYPE students will be in 7th grade. | ||

| JEVS proposes to develop a model integrated substance abuse and HIV prevention program targeting women in methadone maintenance treatment and their families. The program will be developed and implemented at Achievement through Counseling and Treatment (ACT I and II), JEVS'MMT program. Once implemented and evaluated, and with the support of multiple state and local funders, JEVS will offer the program as a service to clients at the ACT and other MMT programs throughout the city. JEVS anticipates that this prevention program will add a new dimension to the services it provides at its own MMT clinics but also services available to clients of other clinics citywide. It will be a model for other MMT clinics. The project, "Achievement through Family Development," targets high risk African American and Hispanic mothers, their partners who are willing to participate, and their families with a focus on prevention of drug abuse and HIV-risk behavior for their children ages 10-16. The women are in treatment at Achievement through Counseling and Testing (ACT), a methadone maintenance treatment program (MMT) in Philadelphia, PA. In this project, ACT's two clinics will assume broader roles as community agencies and develop a prevention program targeting high risk youth in the neighborhoods around them. The principal goal of the project, in recognition of the high risk status of children of drug dependent persons, is to intervene with the families and their children to prevent the emergence of drug abuse/dependence and HIV-risk behavior in the next generation. The project will draw upon elements of a few different programs, each empirically demonstrated in previous evaluations to be effective prevention modalities, to provide an intensive, integrated intervention that addresses parenting skills, the quality of family relationships, social skills of the children, and knowledge of the personal risks of drug abuse and the HIV-risk associated with substance use and unprotec | ||

| Penn State University in partnership with Progressive Life Center, Inc. of Philadelphia, along with other community partners is proposing an initiative to provide young African American girls in Southwest Philadelphia with the skills necessary to promote healthy behavior and reduce risk. The primary goal of this project is to implement a culturally congruent social cognitive intervention designed to decrease risky behaviors in the sex and drug domains. Co-occurring problems of early and unprotected sex and drug engagement confront many African American adolescent females, especially those who reside in low-income high-risk communities. The period of early adolescence (11-14) may be an especially risky and vulnerable period as girls begin the developmental transition from childhood to adolescence. Prevention interventions must simultaneously address the issue of drug and sex at this critical age before problems surface. The objectives of this study are: (1) to implement an effective intervention that decreases risky attitudes and behaviors within the sexual and drug domains; (2) to evaluate the efficacy of the intervention at increasing skills and self-efficacy beliefs within these domains; and (3) to evaluate the extent to which the intervention strengthens and promotes positive cultural and identity factors. This initiative proposes to target 180 girls over the course of 3 years. Intervention components will consist of 30 integrated cultural sessions used by the investigators in previous prevention programs to strengthen ethnic and gender identity and a relational orientation. The cultural curriculum will be integrated with a curriculum aimed at sexual risk and HIV prevention, such as the 6-session Be Proud! Be Responsible! Curriculum developed by Jemmott, Jemmott, and McCaffree (1996); and a curriculum to increase drug refusal efficacy and skills, and to prevent or delay drug use, such as Botvin's 16-session Life Skill Training (LST). | ||

| Reading, Pennsylvania has experienced an increasingly high incidence of both IV drug use (heroin) and HIV infection that is over represented among Hispanic residents. In response to this problem, the Community Prevention Partnership of Berks County is requesting funding to support the development and implementation of the Neighborhood Unity Program (NUP) a community outreach and educational intervention targeting Hispanic women. The NUP employs individual, group and community prevention strategies designed to reduce the risk of HIV/AIDS and substance abuse among participants, their families and their communities. The intervention will occur in two public housing developments and in Reading's Weed & Seed targeted area. The NUP proposes to employ an Information- Motivation-Behavioral Skills (Fisher & Fisher, 1992) prevention model for program participants that will utilize an evidence-based curriculum and be offered in two formats. The first format is a 12-week program with six sessions covering HIV/AIDS and substance abuse prevention as well as sessions on conflict resolution, family relationships, self-esteem, stress management and accessing resources. The second format is a 6-week program limited to HIV/AIDS and substance abuse prevention. The efficiency and effectiveness of both models will be tested. The second activity of the project will support the development of a Women's Health Council (WHC) (Sikkema et al, 200) in each of the four project sites. Women who have completed the educational program will be recruited to serve on the WHC and participate in a specialized train the trainer program "Talking to your Kids about AIDS" curriculum (Meschke et al, 1999). They will then serve a peer educator role to teach their neighbors how to talk to their children about substance abuse and AIDS and they will assist with community education on HIV/AIDS and substance abuse prevention through community events and activities aimed at adults, young adults, families | ||
