Effectiveness Trial of a Family Home Visiting Intervention to Promote Early Child Development Among Families Served by the Social Protection System in Rwanda
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Sugira Muryango for Child Development, Social Protection. Completed, enrolled 2,911 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The proposed study will test the effectiveness of the Strong Families, Thriving Children "Sugira Muryango" program as delivered by community based workers and aligned with the Rwandan social protection system. Sugira Muryango is a preventive, family-based model that uses home visiting and coaching to encourage responsive parent-child interactions and discourage violence and harsh punishment targeting families living in extreme poverty. Integration of scalable, cost-effective interventions into poverty-reduction and other social welfare programs has great potential as an effective means to promote child development and reduce familial violence and in a range of culturally diverse, low-resource settings.
