AI-generated Abstract

This research investigates the impact of three evidence-based programs—Incredible Years, Triple-P, and PATHS—on child outcomes in Birmingham, UK, a city that grapples with both excellence in some educational areas and significant child welfare risks, primarily due to poverty and ethnic diversity. The study utilized various measures to assess mental health and social behavior improvements among participating children, emphasizing the role of the Birmingham City Council in initiating these forward-thinking public service projects. Key findings indicate statistically significant benefits of the programs on youth well-being and social competencies.
