Masayang Pamilya Feasibility Study

The aim of this study is to test the feasibility of (1) an 8-session version of the Masayang Pamilya (MaPa) parenting program for families with children aged 2-9 (MaPa Kids) and (2) a culturally and contextually adapted 9-session MaPa parenting program for families with children aged 10-17 (MaPa Teens). The feasibility of MaPa Kids and MaPa Teens will be assessed through self-report questionnaires, in-depth interviews and focus group discussions, and implementation data. Together, the focus groups, questionnaires, interviews, and implementation data will assess the overall feasibility of the MaPa Kids and MaPa Teen programs in the Philippines by examining program delivery, participation, acceptability, scalability, and preliminary effectiveness on reducing child maltreatment and associated risks.
