Summary

This study looks at whether a 9-week program called ACT Raising Safe Kids helps fathers and other male caregivers reduce child abuse and family violence. About 500 male caregivers with children ages 1 to 10 will take surveys over time. Some will take the program, and others will not, so researchers can compare changes in anger, conflict, and parenting stress.
