Families who consented to participate in the study were randomly allocated to either the BCA or TAU group. Sixty children enrolled in the study. Both groups showed improvements on a number of variables at 3 months post Treatment, but only those receiving BCA showed continued improvement at 6 months. Participants in both groups showed high levels of satisfaction with the Treatment received. Participants in the TAU grou ...

Illinois children who have Mental Health and substance abuse problems will receive improved Treatment through a new program, Governor Rod R. Blagojevich announced today.
