KeySteps@JC - Early Child Intervention

KSJC
Start date: October 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The proposed early intervention is grounded within a framework that incorporates two key aspects: a multi-level component with nested or layered contexts, and a growth aspect with early and on-going social investments to mitigate disparate trajectories among underprivileged children. Capital is built across multiple levels over a three-year period during the critical window of early childhood - among the young children themselves plus their primary caregivers and teachers (Level 1), the family unit and school environment (Level 2), and the larger community (Level 3) that includes infrastructure for extended learning and bridges with other resource institutions. Schools will be stratified and then randomized to receive an integrated multi-disciplinary intervention or a health consultation control. Evaluation will include a comprehensive battery to assess baseline capacity in children, parents, teachers, relationship characteristics between them, as well as the early learning environment at home and at school (Year 1), repeated measures to index intermediate (ongoing for specific individual and family domains, 3 months for school changes, annual progress reports) and final response (Year 3) to treatment, and age- and time-appropriate (e.g. age 4, 5, 6; stage of parenting; experience of teachers) indices of functioning at each annual checkpoint.
