CTNN-IW is responsive to the 2003 New Freedom Commission on Mental Health Report as part of the National Children's Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN) funded through the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). CTTN-IW has two levels of operation involving about 200 providers: a core of providers employed by Primary Children's Center for Safe and Healthy Families (SHF) and a larger circle of providers throughout the Intermountain West not employed by SHF. Combining the expertise of SHF with the results of needs assessment data from the Intermountain West, the focus has been on abused children and children exposed to family violence including the five underserved populations. This application is designed to build on the CTTN-IW initial success by using its vitality to further develop and disseminate best practices across the Intermountain West that is responsive and sensitive to the children and families served. In collaboration with other Centers in the NCTSN, CTTN-IW plans to train SHF providers to train non-SHF providers with fidelity in three best practices for abused children. Simultaneously, all providers in CTTN-IW will learn more about these best practices and collaborate with other Centers in the development of best practices to meet the breadth of traumatic experiences faced by children and their families. Collection of objective information will permit sound evaluation and continuous quality improvement. | ||

This gender specific and culturally adapted program, with meetings 2 times a week for 6 months, will integrate 2 "model" programs namely; the Nuevo Dia Program (New Day) and the Being a Responsible Teem Program (BART) for implementation. This family skills based approach will conduct similar "theme" sessions for mothers and daughters at the same time for one hour once a week; and then mothers and daughters will meet to discuss the topic of the session for an additional 30 minutes. During the second meeting of the week, academic tutoring will be provided for the youth while mothers have an optional session to learn English skills, work towards a G.E.D. or another academic oriented endeavor. Recreational, educational, cultural and other activities will also be integrated into the program. Sessions are taught in small groups of 10-15 mother/daughters pairs. Youth/mothers will be recruited primarily by referrals from school counselors in target schools. The project will be evaluated utilizing a quasi-experimental design with random assignment to either the intervention group or a wait-list control group. Eight cohorts of 45 youth/mothers will enroll in the project intervention and another 45 will enroll as a comparison group for a total enrollment of 360 daughters and 360 mothers. With attrition, it is anticipated that 70% will complete the intervention. Youth and their mothers will be pre-tested at a program orientation; assigned to either the current treatment group or wait-list control; post-tested at the end of the 6 month program. The youth in the wait-list control group will then begin the program. This process will be repeated for the duration of the program so that services are available to all those recruited. | ||
