简要总结
The CIFFTA study is a unique intervention that will develop and implement a culturally-specific, family-based individual, drug use, sexual risk and delinquency risk reduction program for Haitian youth ages 13-17 in Miami-Dade County, Florida.
详细描述
Haitian youth in Miami-Dade County who become part of the juvenile justice system have not received culturally appropriate remediating or rehabilitative attention by that system. This study will modify a specific variety of intervention, the Culturally Informed and Flexible Family-Based Treatment for Adolescents (CIFFTA) for appropriateness in Miami's Haitian cultural contexts. This study will develop and implement a culturally specific, family-based adolescent therapy, drug use, sexual risk and delinquency risk reduction program for Haitian adolescents aged 13-17 in Miami-Dade County, Florida.
