About this study
Official title: Intervention Feasibility Study - Fatherhood After Prison: Healthy Children and Families
The purpose of this study is to learn how to better support fathers and their families after incarceration. It will test an intervention that promotes healthy development for children of previously incarcerated fathers and the caregivers of their children for empirical promise through a pilot feasibility trial. The aims of the pilot are to demonstrate: a) client acceptance of the treatment (e.g., retention), b) ability to recruit sufficient numbers of participants, and c) feasibility of delivery with the clients and therapists in the designated treatment settings. About 15 families (15 fathers, 15 caregivers, and 15-20 children, totaling 45-50 participants) will be in the study.
Read the detailed description
The purpose of the overall study, Promoting Healthy Development among Children of Fathers with Antisocial Behavior, is to build and test a preventive family-focused intervention in a feasibility study that promotes healthy development for children of previously incarcerated fathers and the caregivers of their children. The study has three specific aims, two of which have already been completed. The first was to conduct secondary data analyses to explore a series of questions that explored topics including fathers' history of antisocial behavior and criminality, children's psycho-social and behavioral health outcomes, father engagement and parenting behavior, maternal parenting practices, quality of parental relationship, and extended family involvement. The second aim included conducting semi-structured interviews with fathers, mothers, and relatives to improve understanding of the barriers to father engagement and challenges that families face as fathers return to the community following incarceration.
To that end, this protocol situates itself within the third and final aim, that of specifying treatment procedures (e.g., develop manuals, select measures, specify therapist training and adherence procedures) and establishing feasibility of the intervention (e.g., recruitment, enrollment, fidelity, adherence, retention, and safety). Specifically, this protocol is in regard to the feasibility of the intervention. The purpose is to test the intervention for empirical promise through a pilot feasibility trial. The aims of the pilot are to demonstrate: a) client acceptance of the treatment (e.g., retention), b) ability to recruit sufficient numbers of participants, and c) feasibility of delivery with the clients and therapists in the designated treatment settings.
The family intervention is based in a family systems model that includes all members of the family. Multiple family groups are used because previous research has found they are efficient forms of service delivery, build social support among participants, and improve parent-child interactions. Feasibility of the pilot must include all participants anticipated in the program model to test strategies, logistics, and measures. Drawing from the framework of dissemination and implementation science, another central purpose of the pilot is to refine the operational methods that will facilitate translation and implementation in the future should the intervention be found efficacious and effective. This pilot will answer questions that are pertinent to intervention development, as well as the success of dissemination and implementation in the future.
The Intervention:
Pathways for Parents after Incarceration (P4P) is a community-based program that seeks to equip fathers with the skills both for positive father engagement and reentry success. It uses a manualized curriculum that is adapted from a prison-based program, Parenting Inside Out (PIO). PIO is an evidence-based, cognitive-behavioral parent management skills training program created for incarcerated parents through a six-year collaboration of scientists, policy makers, practitioners, and instructional designers. Both the information in the program and the way that information is presented were informed by knowledge derived from research and practice. Extracted from the full 90-hour version, the Pathways for Parents after Incarceration program uses eight key lessons from the original version that have been identified by the research team and those with lived experience as being most beneficial to them. These include topics on effective listening, speaking, and problem-solving skills, lessons on emotion regulation, and issues surrounding family engagement. The course is led by 2 parent coaches who will be interviewed by program leaders and formally trained to deliver PIO by the PIO parent organization, The Pathfinder Network. The classroom-based PIO sessions will be delivered over 8 weeks in two-hour sessions.
In addition to the classroom component that PIO provides, the program will offer a therapeutic component. Weekly, those receiving services from Pathways for Parents after Incarceration will be invited to take part in a peer support group-style group session led by an esteemed provider within the community, Anesis Family Therapy. This component of the program is rooted in systems therapy and uses narrative therapy, trauma focused cognitive therapy, and motivational interviewing techniques. This aspect promotes fathers' and caregivers' ability to identify their values and skills so they can effectively confront the challenges (both instrumental and relational) that they face during their reentry period and as family members working to support the fathers. These sessions run for 45 minutes following the classroom portion.
The program (both classroom and therapeutic peer support) will be offered weekly on a weekday evening for 8 continuous weeks (the 9th week will be a class graduation/celebration). The sessions will be offered virtually to accommodate safety protocols related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Proportion of Eligible Fathers and Caregivers Who Consent
The feasibility of this approach will in part be measured by successful recruitment of participants from this population. This is measured by the proportion of eligible fathers and caregivers who consent to study participation and enrollment.
Measured: baseline
Proportion of Enrolled Fathers and Caregivers Who Complete Entire Intervention
The feasibility of this approach will in part be measured by the retention of participants in this intervention. This is measured by the proportion of enrolled fathers and caregivers who participate in the first intervention class (after baseline) and complete entire intervention.
Measured: up to 9 weeks
Provider Adherence Measured by the Parenting Inside Out Group Observation Feedback Form Score
Adherence is measured using the Parenting Inside Out (PIO) Group Observation Feedback Form to assess program integrity and fidelity to the model. This is a 35-item survey that assesses 5 domains: curriculum delivery and fidelity; facilitation skills, behavior support and group management; interpersonal skills, and PIO specific items. Each item is scored on a scale of 1-5 where 1 is remediation needed, 2 is growth area, 3 is developing, 4 is effective, and 5 is highly effective. Average scores from each domain are reported for a total possible range of scores 1-5, higher scores indicate better adherence.
Measured: up to 9 weeks
Acceptability of Intervention Assessed by Providers
Acceptability is assessed by interventionists using an overall rating of the content delivered to participants each week.
The overall score is rated on a scale of 1=poor to 10=excellent, with higher scores indicating greater acceptability.
