NCT ID NCT07170605
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study tested a program called the Building Resilience Program (BRP) in 38 preschoolers aged 2-4 who had experienced trauma. The program used play and group activities to teach coping skills, emotional regulation, and self-control. Researchers compared it to a standard school readiness program to see if it improved resilience and emotional health in both children and their caregivers.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Building Resilience Program (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, play-based program that helps young children from tough backgrounds build coping skills and emotional strength.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 38 children, so results may not apply to all kids. The program is not a treatment for trauma itself, and benefits may be modest or short-lived.
