Adults must be over 18, have at least a high school education, and an interest in working with tribal families. Families currently dealing with intimate partner violence or protective orders are excluded.

What are the potential side effects?

As this intervention involves educational and community-based activities rather than medical treatments or drugs, there are no typical 'side effects' like you would expect from medication; however participants may experience emotional discomfort when discussing sensitive topics.
