Abstract

Parenting supports are critical for mothers with substance use disorders (SUD) in treatment and recovery. Early intervention is a vital protective factor for children with developmental and behavioral challenges due to prenatal substance exposure and early adversity. We present the Trauma Informed Parenting (TIP) intervention model for mothers parenting young children while in residential SUD treatment. Its design was guided by principles and practices of occupational therapy, trauma-informed care, and relationship-focused early intervention. We describe the development, implementation and short-term outcomes of the intervention, characteristics of the mothers (N = 150) and children (N = 96), and discuss lessons learned.
