Filter by:Disruptive behavioral disorders are common in early childhood, affecting up to 15% of preschool-aged children. Behavioral parent training programs are a first-line evidence-based treatment for child disruptive behaviors. There is evidence showing that (a) these programs are effective in reducing disruptive behavior and improving long-term outcomes, and (b) there is an excellent return on investment for early intervention. Nevertheless, there is limited availability of behavioral parent training programs, particularly in rural settings, due to shortages of trained clinicians. Thus, there is a pressing need for expanding the mental healthcare workforce in rural/underserved areas. The study will involve an established parent-based behavioral intervention (First Approach Skills Training for Behavior; or FAST-B) with added pilot component incorporating parents who have previously been through parent behavioral management training programs as Peer Supports.
