Abstract
Parenting interventions are the gold standard for addressing child behavior problems andstrengthening parent-child relationships. Although effective, there is notable levels of attrition
due to the length and time commitment of most parenting interventions and especially for
minorities such as Spanish – speaking families. The present study examines the feasibility and
acceptability of the Parent Child – CARE parenting intervention in a sample of Spanish –
speaking families. All parents were primarily spanish-speaking (N = 25) and were recruited to
participate alongside their children who displayed mild to moderate behavioral problems. All
families were provided the Parent Child – CARE parenting intervention. Results revealed that
parents found the intervention to be an acceptable form of treatment for mild to moderate child
behavioral problems. Feasibility related affairs and future directions are discussed.
