本文的目的是描述一个协作社区项目，旨在增强无家可归家庭儿童的心理健康和发展。尽管无家可归的儿童面临许多风险因素，但对了解和满足他们的需求的关注却有限。针对无家可归儿童的社区行动 (CATCH) 是由一群无家可归家庭社区领袖和幼儿心理健康专家制定的； CATCH 的目标是促进无家可归儿童的社会情感调整和发展状况。在本文中，我们提供了该项目的基本原理，讨论了为实现这些目标而实施的目标和策略，并描述了吸取的经验教训。
The purpose of this article is to describe a collaborative community project designed to enhance the mental health and development of children experiencing family homelessness. In spite of the many risk factors faced by children without homes, there has been limited attention to understanding and addressing their needs. Community Action Targeting Children who are Homeless (CATCH) was developed by a group of community leaders in family homelessness and experts in young children's mental health; the goal of CATCH is to promote the social–emotional adjustment and developmental status of children who are homeless. In this article we provide a rationale for the project, discuss the goals and strategies implemented to meet those goals, and describe the lessons learned.
