The CARE implementation study: scaling group-based psychoeducational trauma therapy across healthcare organizations in Canada
Overview
This implementation study evaluates the Community Access to Resourced & Resilient PsychoEducation (CARE) intervention, an 8-week trauma-focused group therapy model designed for scalable delivery by healthcare professionals in Ontario. The resource details the program's structure, which includes asynchronous training and virtual supervision, alongside outcomes from a mixed-methods assessment across five healthcare organizations. It reports on feasibility, acceptability, patient adherence rates, and observed reductions in PTSD, depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms among adult participants.
