The Family First organization has developed and implemented a literacy campaign within their All Pro Dad (APD) program designed to enhance father and child relationships, while also building child reading and academic skills. The evaluation plan examines the implementation experiences of new chapters and identifies opportunities to support their continued growth and success. This plan includes research questions and methods that are guided by APD goals. It reports on strategies that Family First can use to support the growth and enhance the positive impact of APD chapter events on dads and their children. As Family First continues to grow the APD program, the evaluation plan will expand its focus to assess changes over time in parent knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors related to the literacy campaign.

This project aims to decrease the rate of recidivism, defined as returning to the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice (FLDJJ) system within one year of release, among Florida鈥檚 juvenile offenders with brain injury by increasing brain injury surveillance within the FLDJJ and by implementing a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) continuum of services to address the unique needs of the brain injury population. These goals will ultimately be reached by implementing TBI screening protocols within identified FLDJJ residential program sites, working with Youth Opportunity Foundation professionals at those sites to implement brain injury specific programming. Resource Facilitators will infuse Brain Injury accommodations into their residential programming (Ohio Valley Center for Brain Injury Prevention and Rehabilitation), creating a care pathway called 鈥淔LDJJ TBI Continuum.鈥�

A special focus is in fruit/vegetable consumption over the course of the parent NOURISH-T+ project, examining individual differences in eating behaviors and conducting interviews with participating parents to get a better understanding of their perceptions of personal and social individual difference variables most important to them in influencing behavior change.
