BEHAVIORAL

PriCARE/CARIÑO

PriCARE/CARIÑO is a group caregiver training program designed to improve child behaviors, caregiver-child relationships, parenting capacity, and reduce caregiver stress. Sessions occur in the primary care clinic or virtually. PriCARE/CARIÑO uses the 3 P skills (Praise, Paraphrase and Point-out-Behavior). The training starts with skills on giving attention to children's positive, pro-social behaviors, while ignoring minor misbehaviors. The second part of the training teaches skills for giving effective commands in order to set age-appropriate limits and increase compliance. PriCARE/CARIÑO includes a stress education section that contextualizes the use of these skills with the types of behaviors and problems exhibited by many children living with psychosocial adversity and familial stress. Caregivers are encouraged to practice the skills with their child in between sessions. CARIÑO is the culturally adapted version of PriCARE for Spanish speaking participants.
