项目摘要

Abstract This proposal seeks funding to examine the impact of a 12.5-year long, relationship-based, professional mentoring program, Friends of the Children (FOTC) within the context of an existing multi-site randomized controlled trial (RCT; FOTC versus control). The research trial (The Child Study) was funded by the NIH through the NICHD from 2007-2013. The program has continued through a variety of external funders. Professional mentors (called “Friends”) have continued working with the youth since the project began. Mentors receive extensive training and apprenticeship, and then participate in ongoing supervision, working with a typical caseload of 8 children during elementary school and 10-12 youth during middle and high school. Across the course of the program, youth involved in the program have interacted both with their mentors and with other youth-mentor pairs, becoming part of a community of children and adolescents and caring adults. To the best of our knowledge, there are no published, rigorous outcome studies of a mentoring program that has this combination of program elements. The study is built on the rigorous research program that began during The Child Study (Eddy, et al. 2015, Eddy et al., 2017), which demonstrated the strong adoption and implementation of the FOTC mentoring model. Further, 5 years after the program began, this study found growth in parent’s report of the youth’s behavioral strengths, as measured by increased family involvement, interpersonal strengths and school functioning; positive school behavior; and less externalizing problem behavior in youth randomized to FOTC compared to controls. The proposed study will reengage participants in both intervention and control conditions to conduct end-line (just after actual or estimated high school graduation) and 2-year follow-up evaluations of program impact into young adulthood. The study uses a rigorous RCT design that includes two assessments of all of the active participants in The Child Study (N = 259), a sample of low income, ethnically diverse, at-risk, urban youth. Data will also be collected from caregivers and school, arrest and court records will be collected at the end point. Implementation data collected by FOTC will also be used in the analysis. Young adult surveys will be conducted and arrest and court records collection at the 2-year follow-up (about age 21). Using intent-to-treat analyses, this study will examine program impacts in 3 primary outcomes -- avoidance of involvement in juvenile justice, graduation from high school or obtaining a GED, and delaying parenthood into young adulthood, at the program end point and 2 years later. Further, we will explore whether hypothesized mechanisms of increased social capital mediates the relationships between intervention and outcomes. Finally, we will examine the relationship between various levels of program involvement in FOTC and program impact.
摘要 该提案旨在寻求资金,以研究一个长达12.5年,以关系为基础的专业 辅导计划,儿童之友(FOTC)在现有的多地点随机背景下, 对照试验(RCT; FOTC vs Control)。这项研究试验(儿童研究)是由美国国立卫生研究院资助的 从2007年到2013年,该方案通过各种外部资助者继续进行。 自项目开始以来,专业导师(称为“朋友”)一直在与青年人合作。 导师接受广泛的培训和学徒,然后参与持续的监督,工作 典型的案件量是小学8名儿童,初中和高中10-12名青年。 在整个项目过程中,参与项目的青年与他们的导师互动, 与其他青年导师配对,成为儿童和青少年以及有爱心的成年人社区的一部分。 据我们所知,目前还没有关于指导计划的公开的、严格的结果研究 它有这样的程序元素组合。这项研究是建立在严格的研究计划, 在儿童研究期间(Eddy等人,2015年,Eddy等人,2017年),这表明了强大的采用和 实施FOTC指导模式。此外,在项目开始5年后,这项研究发现, 父母对青少年行为优势的报告增长,以增加家庭参与为衡量标准, 人际优势和学校功能;积极的学校行为;和较少的外化问题 与对照组相比,随机分配到FOTC的青年的行为。拟议的研究将使参与者重新参与, 干预和控制条件都要进行终点线(刚过实际或估计高中 毕业)和两年的后续评估方案的影响,进入年轻的成年。 这项研究采用了严格的随机对照试验设计,包括对所有积极参与者的两次评估, 儿童研究(N = 259),样本低收入,种族多样性,风险,城市青年。数据也将 将在终点收集从看护人和学校收集的逮捕和法庭记录。 FOTC收集的实施数据也将用于分析。青年调查将是 在2年随访(约21岁)时进行逮捕和法庭记录收集。使用意向治疗 分析,这项研究将审查方案的影响,在3个主要成果-避免参与, 少年司法,高中毕业或获得GED,以及将父母推迟到年轻时 成年期,在程序结束点和2年后。此外,我们将探讨是否假设 增加社会资本的机制在干预和结果之间起中介作用。最后, 我们将研究FOTC中不同层次的项目参与和项目影响之间的关系。
