Brief Summary

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

The purpose of the study will be to determine how participation in Family-Centered Care (FCC) compared to Child-centered care (CCC) will affect caregiver engagement in IPV-based community services, caregiver perceptions of empowerment and survivor-defined practice, and clinical outcomes for children exposed to IPV.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study population includes victims of intimate partner violence whose children \< 5-years old have been referred to Child Protective Services due to exposure to IPV and who have agreed to a medical evaluation for the child(ren) in the child advocacy center or the SCAN clinic and don't already have a connection to an IPV advocate. The study population will include adults who are primarily English or Spanish Language preferring. For professionals, the target audience will be local CPS investigators in the New Haven and Hartford CPS office, IPV advocates at the New Haven Umbrella Center for Intimate Partner Violence Services and The Hartford Interval House and child abuse pediatricians at Yale University School of Medicine and at the Connecticut Childrens Medical Center.
