Fathers Clinical Trial
Official title:
Impact Evaluation of the TYRO Champion Dads Project in Dallas, Texas
This impact evaluation aims to determine if the addition of 10 hours of domestic violence prevention programming is effective at improving outcomes among those program participants who are randomly assigned to the treatment group. Both study groups will receive standard TYRO Champion Dads services (the TYRO Dads and TYRO Core Communication evidence-based curricula, plus support services), but only the treatment group will be offered the additional Ray of Hope curriculum hours focused on mitigating risk factors related to domestic violence.
