Abstract: | The purposes of this article is to describe a parent involvement program and to conduct a formative evaluation regarding the impact of attendance at parent group meetings, for parents whose children were enrolled in a day-treatment facility for conduct-disordered students and the degree to which these students were successfully reintegrated into public schools. Preliminary results suggest that a mainstreaming program which offers a therapeutically-oriented parent group may be a worthwhile way of assisting successful reintegration of conduct-disordered adolescents into regular classes in public schools. |
