Interventions
Infant Behavior Program (IBP)
Infant Behavior Program (IBP) is a home-based adaptation of the Child-Directed Interaction (CDI) phase of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), an evidence-based intervention for early externalizing problems. Consistent with recommendations we maintained core features of CDI and addressed the unique developmental needs of infants. All IBP sessions will completed remotely.
Enhanced Pediatric Primary Care (EPPC)
Families in EPPC will receive six one-hour home visits where they will receive information about normative developmental and health expectations for their infant. Specifically, therapists will provide education on six topics: (1) cognitive and emotional development; (2) language and social development; (3) safety; (4) feeding and nutrition; (5) sleep; and (6) fitness and activity. All EPPC sessions will completed remotely.
