Project Safe Start-Nebraska is a partnership between Family Treatment Drug Courts and child/family mental health service providers to address the mental health needs of infants, toddlers, and preschool children affected by parental methamphetamine use. Child-Parent Psychotherapy, an evidence-based clinical intervention, will address the child's socio-emotional adjustment within the context of the parent-child relationship. All infants, toddlers, and young children under age five who are in Family Treatment Drug Courts because of parental methamphetamine use will be screened for developmental delays and will be assessed for their socio-emotional adjustment. Further, the quality of their relationship with their parent will be assessed. Those children that are identified to have difficulties will be provided a course of evidence-based Child-Parent Psychotherapy with their parent. Clinicians will provide timely and relevant reports to the Family Treatment Drug Courts regarding the child's well-being, the progress of the child-parent pair in the treatment, and the parental capacity to provide a healthy and nurturing home for the child.
