Families who experience urban poverty and are exposed to chronic and complex traumatic stress are also at risk for child maltreatment. There is a paucity of family focused, trauma-informed evidence-based interventions aimed to alleviate trauma symptomatology, strengthen family functioning, and prevent child abuse and neglect. Trauma Adapted Family Connections (TA-FC) is a manualized, evidence supported and trauma-focused preventive intervention developed to address the glaring gap in services for this specific, growing, and underserved population. All families receive a comprehensive family assessment, emergency assistance, and a service plan to address trauma symptomatology using a family framework. There are three treatment phases based on the core components of trauma treatment with each phase lasting approximately two months. The majority of services are delivered weekly in the home or community setting of the family. Updated 2024.
