Abstract

A Spanish-speaking mother reported for child abuse of her 6-yr-old son and referred by child protective services received Spanish training protocols in their home provided by Project SafeCare. Treatment consisted of (1) child health care training, (2) planned activities training (PAT), and (3) home safety training. Following training, the mother met criterion in all training components. Although PAT was conducted with the mother and her youngest child only, the mother reported decreases in negative interactions between the oldest (untreated) child and his parents. Follow-up observations indicated that treatment gains were maintained. The mother rated the content and outcome of the training favorably on a social validation questionnaire.
