Summary

This trial will evaluate the effectiveness of two therapies for children and families dealing with trauma, including racial and cultural stress.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and adolescents aged 5-17 who have experienced trauma leading to emotional issues like PTSD, along with a parent or guardian. They must be able to consent to the study. It's not for those at immediate risk of harm to self or others, or individuals with an intellectual disability (IQ<70).
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Trauma Systems Therapy (TST) in treating trauma in kids. It aims to see how well these therapies work when considering additional stress from racial issues and adapting to new cultures.
What are the potential side effects?
While TF-CBT and TST are generally considered safe, they may bring up uncomfortable emotions during therapy sessions as participants work through traumatic experiences.
