Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to partner with the North Carolina Child Treatment Program (NC CTP) and the SAMHSA-funded National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN) to develop and pilot the Collaborative Organizational Approach to Selecting and Tailoring Implementation Strategies (COAST-IS). The COAST-IS intervention will involve coaching organizational leaders and therapists to use Intervention Mapping to select and tailor strategies. Intervention Mapping is a multistep process that is inherently ecological and incorporates theory, evidence, and stakeholder perspectives to ensure that intervention components effectively address key determinants of change. After collaboratively developing COAST-IS in Year 1, the investigators will conduct a randomized pilot trial of the intervention within an NC CTP learning collaborative, randomly assigning eight organizations to the learning collaborative-only condition or the learning collaborative plus COAST-IS condition. Participants will include organizational leaders (e.g., CEOs/Directors, Clinical Directors, Supervisors) and therapists (e.g., Licensed Clinical Social Workers, Licensed Psychologists, Licensed Professional Counselors). The investigators will evaluate COAST-IS in the following aims: 1) to assess the acceptability, appropriateness, feasibility, and utility of COAST-IS; 2) to evaluate organizational stakeholders' fidelity to the core elements of Intervention Mapping; and 3) to demonstrate the feasibility of testing COAST-IS in a larger effectiveness trial. This work is significant because it will yield a systematic method that integrates theory, evidence, and stakeholder perspectives to improve the effectiveness and precision of implementation strategies. Ultimately, COAST-IS may have the potential to improve implementation and sustainment of a wide-range of EBPs in mental health and other health sectors.

TF-CBT Learning collaborative + COAST-IS

In addition to participating in a learning collaborative for implementing trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) with periodic coaching calls, organizations will receive additional training and tailored implementation support.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

COAST-IS

Intervention Type OTHER

COAST-IS has been designed to equip organizations with the knowledge, motivation, and skill needed to thoughtfully match implementation strategies to identified determinants by applying intervention mapping. The COAST-IS intervention will include four different modes of delivery: 1) dissemination of educational materials; 2) five web-based interactive education sessions on the need for tailoring implementation strategies and the application of intervention mapping; 3) site visits to discuss change objectives necessary to successfully implement trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy; and 4) organizational coaching related to using an intervention mapping approach.

TF-CBT Learning Collaborative

Intervention Type OTHER

The learning collaborative model was adapted from the Breakthrough Series Collaborative model. Leadership of the collaboratives includes experts in evidence-based practices, implementation, and quality improvement. Main components include: 1) three face-to-face learning sessions (2-days each) that provide clinical training; 2) post-learning session action periods structured to facilitate therapists' application of learned skills; 3) a secure website to facilitate faculty-to-participant and peer-to-peer learning and document use of quality improvement methods; 4) fidelity monitoring and coaching; 5) a senior leader track supporting organizational change; 6) monthly outcomes monitoring; and 7) sustainability planning.
