Inside SMART Africa Updates from the Field

SMART Africa Kenya- updates from the field

SMART Africa-Kenya is a pilot study that tests the effectiveness of the Multiple Family Group (MFG) intervention amongst approximately 180 children and their caregivers in Kiambu County, Kenya. The Kenya team has finalized the MFG intervention in both treatment schools, both with great attendance. Families from these schools appreciated the intervention and stated that this has helped improve family functioning and has made their families happier. In addition to MFG sessions, the team collected the fidelity measures and in the coming weeks will enter them into the dataset. The team will also prepare for the 16-week assessments in all their schools. Congratulations to our Kenya team for completing the MFG sessions and we look forward to seeing more outcomes out of the study!
