Implementing a braided home-based parent-support curriculum
Open AccessKate Guastaferro, Katy Miller et al.ARTICLEPsychosocial Intervention2017
A singular parent-support program is limited in its ability to address multiple child and family needs. One innovative solution is braiding, a process in which two evidence-based programs are systematically combined as a newly tailored, cohesive curriculum. In this paper we describe the systematic braiding of two parent-support curricula, Parents as Teachers ® and SafeCare ® . We highlight implementation challenges to inform future planning and b…
Systematic Braiding of 2 Evidence-Based Parent Training Programs
Kate Guastaferro, Katy Miller et al.ARTICLEFamily & Community Health2016
An effective approach in early intervention for children and families, including child maltreatment prevention, is home-based services. Although several evidence-based programs exist, they are often grouped or delivered together, despite having different foci and approaches. This article describes the development and pilot phases of a trial evaluating the systematic braiding of 2 evidence-based home-based models, SafeCare and Parents as Teachers.…

John R Lutzker, Barbara L BonnerARTICLEAmerican Psychologist2016
Presents an obituary for Mark Chaffin, who passed away unexpectedly on August 23, 2015, in Atlanta, Georgia, while riding his bike on the Atlanta Beltline, a joy and passion for him. Mark was a leader in the field of child maltreatment research. He dedicated his career to helping at-risk children and families. His distinguished career belied his self-proclaimed, self-effacing lack of accomplishment
Public child welfare staff knowledge, attitudes, and referral behaviors for an evidence based parenting program
Open AccessDulce Whitaker, Jessica S Rogers-Brown et al.ARTICLEPsychosocial Intervention2015
Little is known about how the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of the public child welfare work force influence implementation of evidence-based practice (EBP) as most research has focused on the private workforce. This paper reports on public child welfare staff knowledge, attitudes, and practices in a state implementing the EBP, SafeCare®. A survey of public child welfare staff (N = 222) was conducted to assess knowledge, familiarity, and re…
Dynamic adaptation process to implement an evidence-based child maltreatment intervention
Open AccessGregory A Aarons, Amy E Green et al.ARTICLEImplementation Science2012
BACKGROUND: Adaptations are often made to evidence-based practices (EBPs) by systems, organizations, and/or service providers in the implementation process. The degree to which core elements of an EBP can be maintained while allowing for local adaptation is unclear. In addition, adaptations may also be needed at the system, policy, or organizational levels to facilitate EBP implementation and sustainment. This paper describes a study of the feasi…
SafeCare®
Open AccessKatelyn M Guastaferro, John R Lutzker et al.ARTICLEPsychosocial Intervention2012
SafeCare is an evidence-based parent-training program that reduces child maltreatment, particularly neglect. The risk of child maltreatment, a public health issue affecting millions of U.S. children each year, can be markedly reduced by interventions such as SafeCare that deliver in-home services. Drawing from applied behavioral analysis roots, SafeCare focuses on providing parents with concrete skills in three areas: health, home safety, and par…

Population-Based Prevention of Child Maltreatment
Open AccessRonald J Prinz, Matthew Sanders et al.ARTICLEPrevention Science2009
The prevention of child maltreatment necessitates a public health approach. In the U.S. Triple P System Population Trial, 18 counties were randomly assigned to either dissemination of the Triple P-Positive Parenting Program system or to the services-as-usual control condition. Dissemination involved Triple P professional training for the existing workforce (over 600 service providers), as well as universal media and communication strategies. Larg…
