Evaluation of the Family Intervention Program for Psychosocial At-Risk Families in Cantabria, Spain

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating home-based positive parenting programs designed for families facing psychosocial risks in Cantabria, Spain. This study uses a quasi-experimental design with a non-randomized comparison group and aims to improve parenting skills, family dynamics, and childrens quality of life. Families not participating in the program will provide comparison data to assess the programs impact. Families referred from social services will participate in the Family Intervention Program PIF, which is a home psychoeducational intervention delivered individually by practitioners. Caregivers will learn parenting competencies while children develop autonomy and emotional regulation skills. The study includes families receiving the intervention and a control group living in similar areas without the program. Participants will provide information through questionnaires and scales before the intervention and every six months until they reach their goals, with a maximum intervention period of two years. Data collected includes family functioning, childrens quality of life, emotional intelligence, social integration, parental competencies, and school adjustment. Researchers will analyze these measures to assess changes over time and satisfaction with the program.
