Summary

This research project has two goals. The first goal is to find one or more questionnaires that can accurately identify children who are experiencing high levels of stress or emotional health issues during a regular clinic visit. The second goal is to find out whether children who are experiencing stress or emotional health problems are able to attend a day camp programme and complete activities at home that are designed to help them cope better with stress. We also want to find out if the day camp and home activities are helpful.

Conditions

  • Psychosocial Stress

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Day Camp

The intervention will be delivered using a day camp structure, on a weekend or during school break in July 2011. Separate interventions will be offered for boys and girls. Each intervention will include two full days (0900 to 1600) of group activities lead by the researchers. Details of the "camp" activities will be developed by the researchers, based on the types of psychosocial stress identified during the screening phase of the project.
