Abstract

The Strengthening Families Program is a commercially available family intervention program available out of the United States. To our knowledge there has been no peer-reviewed studies evaluating the value of this program for use in a Canadian context. The present study provides data from the first two years of a Canadian intervention study using the SFP within a northern, urban-rural British Columbia community.
