Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The recent devolvement of the Kenyan government (leading to more local decision-making), the launch of a National Mental Health Policy, and our Kenyan partners' empowerment work building enthusiasm for TF-CBT are converging to create a local climate in which BASIC could become part of the county plan, if evidence-based guidance for implementation, using mostly existing resources, existed. The trial design is an incomplete stepped wedge cluster randomized controlled trial (SW-CRT) including 40 schools and the 40 surrounding villages. The school and the surrounding community are considered a "village cluster." Each of the 40 "village clusters" has 1 team of teachers and 1 team of CHVs delivering Pamoja Tunaweza, resulting in 120 trained lay counselors in each sector, who provide TF-CBT to 1,280 youth and one of their guardians, across seven sequences of the SW-CRT. Site leaders are enrolled for data collection (up to 80), but do not provide services. The study uses a novel method, qualitative comparative analyses (QCA), that holds potential for substantially advancing the field of implementation science. QCA leverages the rigor of quantitative approaches and the detail of qualitative approaches, and allows for complex causality and equifinality (i.e., an outcome can be reached by multiple means).
Study aims are: 1) Identify actionable IPPs that predict adoption (delivery) and fidelity (high- quality delivery) after 10 sites in each sector implement TF-CBT (sequence 1). Use identified IPPs to (Aim 1a) guide implementation planning support for subsequent sites and to (Aim 1b) generate testable hypotheses about IPPs as causal mechanisms; 2) Test mechanisms of implementation success in both sectors across all 7 sequences; and 3) Test TF-CBT effectiveness (i.e., mental health outcomes; functioning) and cost in both sectors. This research has important implications for implementing an evidence-based treatment in low-resource settings, including the US.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Health-Sector Delivered CBT
These child/adolescent participants and one of their guardians will receive Pamoja Tunaweza, the locally adapted version of Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, in a community setting from Community Health Volunteers.
Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Eight small-group sessions, including eight children and one guardian for each child, will meet separately, with joint activities in the final three sessions. TF-CBT will be delivered via community health volunteers in the community setting, and via selected teachers in the school setting--with two lay counselors leading the child group, and one leading the guardian group. Most TF-CBT components (psychoeducation, parenting, relaxation, cognitive coping, grief specific skills) will be delivered in groups, but 2-3 individual sessions mid-group will be used for imaginal exposure (i.e., talking about/processing traumatic events).
Education-Sector Delivered CBT
These child/adolescent participants and one of their guardians will receive Pamoja Tunaweza, the locally adapted version of Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, in their school setting from teachers employed by their school.
Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Eight small-group sessions, including eight children and one guardian for each child, will meet separately, with joint activities in the final three sessions. TF-CBT will be delivered via community health volunteers in the community setting, and via selected teachers in the school setting--with two lay counselors leading the child group, and one leading the guardian group. Most TF-CBT components (psychoeducation, parenting, relaxation, cognitive coping, grief specific skills) will be delivered in groups, but 2-3 individual sessions mid-group will be used for imaginal exposure (i.e., talking about/processing traumatic events).
