Abstract
Description
This issue brief is intended to build a better understanding of the characteristics and benefits of TF-CBT. It was written primarily to help child welfare caseworkers and other professionals who work with at-risk families make more informed decisions about when to refer children and their parents and caregivers to TF-CBT therapists. This information also may help biological parents, foster parents, and other caregivers understand what they and their children can gain from TF-CBT and what to expect during treatment. In addition, this issue brief may be useful to others with an interest in implementing or participating in effective strategies for the treatment of children who have suffered from sexual abuse or multiple traumatic events.
