An Internet-based delivery format to address the unique needs of families of re-integrating service members after deployment to combat zones.
Project Overview
The goal of this Phase II project was to strengthen family functioning and improve child outcomes in reintegrating military families. ADAPT Online responds to the urgent parenting needs of military families potentially at risk for depression, anxiety, substance abuse, post‐traumatic stress, and other maladies. This project tested the efficacy of ADAPT Online to reduce parent stress, increase positive parenting skills, and improve child behavior. The project benefited from participation by scientists from the University of Minnesota’s Department of Family Social Science, Oregon Social Learning Center, Department of Veteran Affairs, Department of Defense’s National Center for Telehealth and Technology, and the Services University of the Health Sciences.
