“…Specifically, CBT for deficits in anger management (e.g., Feindler, Ecton, Kingsley, & Dubey, 1986) was provided when indicated (i.e., for 63% of parents and 28% of children). Similarly, a CBT protocol (Robin, Bedway, & Gilroy, 1994) was used with families who had low problem solving skills or difficulties communicating without conflict (provided to 95% of MST-CAN families). In addition, parents experiencing PTSD symptoms (7%) received prolonged exposure therapy (Foa & Rothbaum, 1998).…”

The primary purpose of this study was to conduct a randomized effectiveness trial of Multisystemic Therapy for Child Abuse and Neglect (MST-CAN) for physically abused youth (mean age = 13.88 years, 55.8% female, 68.6% Black) and their families. Eighty-six families being followed by Child Protective Services due to physical abuse were randomly assigned to MST-CAN or Enhanced Outpatient Treatment (EOT), with both interventions delivered by therapists employed at a community mental health center. Across five assessments extending 16 months post baseline, intent-to-treat analyses showed that MST-CAN was significantly more effective than EOT in reducing youth mental health symptoms, parent emotional distress, parenting behaviors associated with maltreatment, youth out-of-home placements, and changes in youth placement. Also, MST-CAN was significantly more effective at improving natural social support for parents. Effect sizes were in the medium to large range for most outcomes examined. Although fewer children in the MST-CAN condition experienced an incident of reabuse than did counterparts in the EOT condition, base rates were low and this difference was not statistically significant. The findings of this study demonstrate the potential for broad-based treatments of child physical abuse to be effectively transported and implemented in community treatment settings.

“…Aside from safety strategies, DVFCT and the healing process/ceremony, other treatments depend on the drivers of the maltreatment or IPV and behaviours for which interventions are needed. Common research-supported treatments provided, depending on family need, include cognitive-behavioural therapy for anger management, 33 adult 34 and child 35 trauma treatment, reinforcement-based treatment for adult substance misuse, 36 behavioural family therapy focused on problem-solving and communication, 37 behavioural parent training interventions and school-based interventions (e.g. for school refusal or behaviour management).…”

Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a significant global problem that affects the health of children, parents/caregivers and extended family. The effects can be lifelong and span generations. Treatments for IPV are focused largely on individual work with men as the primary aggressor. Even when the situation includes child maltreatment, generally all family members are referred to a host of providers for varied treatments. Traditionally, couples and family work does not occur. In this article, we detail the development and practice of a comprehensive treatment model for complex cases of co-occurring IPV and child maltreatment that is inclusive of the family and couple. Of particular note, the development of this model, Multisystemic Therapy for Intimate Partner Violence (MST-IPV), involved input from the IPV stakeholder community.

“…When the risk factors involve mental health difficulties such as post-traumatic stress disorder or substance abuse or family conflict (common problems in MST-CAN families), treatments that have research support are implemented. These treatments include behavioral family treatment (Robin, Bedway, & Gilroy, 1994), cognitive behaviorally-based trauma treatment such as prolonged exposure for adults (Foa, Hembree, & Rothbaum, 2007) and trauma-focused CBT for children (Cohen, Mannarino, & Deblinger, 2006, 2012), and reinforcement-based treatment for adult substance abuse (Tuten, Jones, Schaeffer, Wong, & Stitzer, 2012).…”

Families experiencing physical abuse and/or neglect are at risk of continued difficulties that may involve long-term monitoring by Child Protective Services (CPS) and perhaps even removal of the child. Interventions needed to help the family remain intact safely and reduce both the clinical challenges they are experiencing and risk of further maltreatment will need to meet the multiple needs of all family members and involve a positive, collaborative working relationship with CPS. If services that are typically provided at outpatient clinics are used, the CPS case worker may be tasked with linking the family to many providers. When the family cannot make all the appointments, they are at further risk of removal of their child. In this article we present Multisystemic Therapy for Child Abuse and Neglect (MST-CAN), an ecologically based treatment for families experiencing physical abuse and/or neglect in which research-supported mental health services are delivered in the home by one clinical team to families who have serious clinical needs. To date, MST-CAN has been implemented with families experiencing the most serious levels of risk, but application is feasible for families with lower risk levels. Among high-risk families, MST-CAN has been shown effective for reducing out-of-home placement, abusive or neglectful parent behavior, and parent and child mental health difficulties and for increasing natural social supports. Two specialty population programs based on MST-CAN are also presented. These are MST – Building Stronger Families, a specialty program for parents who are experiencing abuse or neglect co-occurring with substance abuse, and MST for Intimate Partner Violence for families experiencing abuse or neglect and intimate partner violence. All models are based on the core Standard MST model. We trace the history of model development to dissemination.
