Meeting a growing need among human service and education professionals, this book presents empirically supported guidelines for delivering effective services to 3- to 12-year-olds with aggression and conduct problems. Interventions are organized within a comprehensive developmental-multisystemic framework, and grounded in a vast body of research. Articulated are best practices for assessment and intervention planning, child and parent/family skills building, mental health treatments, school-based interventions, and community-based child and family support. Particular attention is given to strategies for coordinating multiple services and engaging families in intervention efforts. Written in a clear, accessible style, the book offers a vital blueprint for practice with this challenging population of children and their families.
