UNASSIGNED: @entity130 -Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) is a widely used treatment model for @entity130 -exposed @entity1 and adolescents (Cohen, Mannarino, _ Deblinger, 2006). The Healthy Coping Program (HCP) was a multi-site community based intervention carried out in a diverse Canadian city. A randomized, waitlist-control design was used to evaluate the effectiveness of TF-CBT with @entity130 -exposed school-aged @entity1 (Muller _ DiPaolo, 2008). A total of 113 @entity1 referred for clinical services and their caregivers completed the @entity130 Symptom Checklist for @entity1 (Briere, 1996) and the @entity130 Symptom Checklist for Young @entity1 (Briere, 2005). Data were collected pre-waitlist, pre-assessment, pre-therapy, post-therapy, and six months after the completion of TF-CBT. The passage of time alone in the absence of clinical services was ineffective in reducing @entity1 's posttraumatic symptoms. In contrast, @entity1 and caregivers reported significant reductions in @entity1 's posttraumatic stress (PTS) following assessment and treatment. The reduction in PTS was maintained at six month follow-up. Findings of the current study support the use of the TF-CBT model in community-based settings in a diverse metropolis. Clinical implications are discussed.
