About this study

This project addresses the problem of involving parents in interventions that promote parenting effectiveness and child coping-competence in preschoolers as a means of reducing risk of child maltreatment (and related adverse developmental outcomes). Purdue University will examine the impact of partnership (organizational involvement in recruitment and retention), cash incentives, and a motivational goal setting component on participation and engagement in the Parenting Our Children to Excellence program, a group intervention for parents and caregivers of preschool children.
