Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Child and Adolescent Trauma Screen (CATS) Score at Baseline
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1)
CATS is a 15-item assessment of potentially traumatic events and of posttraumatic stress symptoms. The total score is the sum of responses and ranges from 0-60; higher scores indicates more symptoms.
CATS Score at Completion of Intervention
Time Frame: Completion of Intervention (Typically Month 3-4)
CATS is a 15-item assessment of potentially traumatic events and of posttraumatic stress symptoms. The total score is the sum of responses and ranges from 0-60; higher scores indicates more symptoms.
Secondary Outcomes
- Acculturative Stress Scale (SAFE) Score at Baseline(Baseline (Day 1))
- Trauma Symptoms of Discrimination Scale (TSDS) at Completion of Intervention(Completion of Intervention (Typically Month 3-4))
- SAFE Score at Completion of Intervention(Completion of Intervention (Typically Month 3-4))
- Trauma Symptoms of Discrimination Scale (TSDS) at Baseline(Baseline (Day 1))
- Bidimensional Acculturation Scale (BAS) Score at Baseline(Baseline (Day 1))
- Multi-Group Ethnic Identity Measure (MEIM-6) Score at Baseline(Baseline (Day 1))
- Multi-Group Ethnic Identity Measure (MEIM-6) Score at Completion of Intervention(Completion of Intervention (Typically Month 3-4))
- BAS Score at Completion of Intervention(Completion of Intervention (Typically Month 3-4))
