This is a multisystem program for families and children under the age of 12 with antisocial behavior problems.
The intervention has six components:
1) Children’s group: structured group that teaches children cognitive behavioral self-control and structured problem-solving techniques.
2) Parent group: teaches self-control, problem-solving skills, and effective child behavior management strategies.
3) Individual tutors: program professionals provide support to children to enhance the skills learned in the children’s group and achieve intervention goals,
4) Individual counseling sessions for parents based on the “stop now and plan your parenting” method: this is an ongoing service provided at the end of the parent group that provides one-on-one family counseling.
5) School follow-up: ensures that children receive the best possible education.
6) Ongoing care: families can continue to receive assistance as long as they need and are interested in it.
