This paper describes the targeted intervention component of GREAT Schools and Families. The intervention-GREAT Families-is composed of 15 weekly multiple family group meetings (e.g., 4-6 families per group) and addresses parenting practices (discipline, monitoring), family relationship characteristics (communication, support, cohesion), parental involvement and investment in their child's schooling, parent and school relationship building, and planning for the future. High-risk youth and their families-students identified by teachers as aggressive and socially influential among their peers-were targeted for inclusion in the intervention. The paper describes the theoretical model and development of the intervention. Approaches to recruitment, engagement, staff training, and sociocultural sensitivity in work with families in predominantly poor and challenging settings are described. The data being collected throughout the program will aid in examining the theoretical and program processes that can potentially mediate and moderate effects on families. This work can inform us about necessary approaches and procedures to engage and support families in efforts to reduce individual and school grade-level violence and aggression.
本文介绍了“优秀学校与家庭”项目的目标干预部分。该干预项目——“优秀家庭”由每周一次的15次多家庭小组会议组成（例如，每组4 - 6个家庭），涉及育儿实践（纪律、监督）、家庭关系特征（沟通、支持、凝聚力）、家长对孩子学业的参与和投入、家长与学校关系的建立以及未来规划。高风险青少年及其家庭——被教师认定为具有攻击性且在同龄人中具有社会影响力的学生——被纳入干预对象。本文描述了干预的理论模型和发展过程。介绍了在主要为贫困且具有挑战性的环境中与家庭合作时的招募、参与、员工培训以及社会文化敏感性的方法。整个项目收集的数据将有助于检验可能对家庭产生中介和调节作用的理论及项目过程。这项工作可以为我们提供必要的方法和程序，以促使和支持家庭努力减少个人及学校年级层面的暴力和攻击行为。
