Summary

Today, over 2 billion people are affected by conflict or violence, and caregivers affected by war are particularly at-risk for poor mental health and violence against children. This will be among the first RCTs evaluating a psychosocial, parenting intervention amidst a war crisis. This research is testing if 'Hope Groups' work to help families in war. Hope Groups are peer-led psychosocial and parenting support groups of 4-7 participants for Ukrainian caregivers affected by war, compared to a wait-list control group.
