As an intervention for high-risk families, SFCR can cause a reduction in symptoms of traumatic distress and behavior problems and help families demonstrate higher functioning. The SFCR manual is based on a systemic, family approach and uses empirically-supported trauma treatment that focuses on family ritual, storytelling, and narration, which improves communication and understanding within family members. The manual is organized into three accessible parts: <br>- Part 1 details the theoretical and empirical foundations of SFCR<br>- Part 2 focuses on implementation and the clinical guidelines for conducting SFCR<br>- Part 3 contains session guidelines focused on the multi-family group versions of SFCR<br>Each session included in the intervention is structured according to specific guidelines, and instructions provide examples of what facilitators might say to a group. <p/>Formed through the input of psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and anthropologists, Strengthening <em>Family Coping Resources</em> will help you reduce the symptoms of traumatic stress disorders and increase coping resources in children, adult caregivers, and the family system. It also provides a novel approach to addressing co-occurring traumatic reactions in multiple family members by including developmentally appropriate skill-building activities that are reinforced with family practice. For anyone working with families in a therapeutic capacity, this manual is a must-have resource.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Laurel Kiser</strong>, PhD, MBA, is a psychologist and an associate professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Maryland School of Medicine.
