NCT ID NCT07470333
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether 'Hope Groups'—peer-led support groups for Ukrainian caregivers affected by war—can improve mental health and reduce violence against children. Over 500 caregivers participated, with some receiving the 12-session program and others on a waitlist. The goal was to see if this simple, community-based approach could help families cope during crisis.
