Description

Results of a two year evaluation of the effectiveness of a free online behavioral training program, designed for use by home visiting professionals with parents of children with disruptive behavior disorder, resulted in significant improvements in skill acquisition and child behavior that were maintained over time. Family Interaction Training (FIT), a collaboration between CDC and AUCD, was developed from common components of several evidence-based parenting programs.
