  • To assess changes in mental health, parenting confidence, and child contact among participants.

Main Methods:

  • A pre- and posttest quasi-experimental design was employed.
  • The study involved females housed in a federal jail managed by the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
  • An evidence-based parenting program was implemented.

Main Results:

  • Participants showed statistically significant decreases in depression, parental stress, and anxiety.
  • Self-esteem and confidence in parenting skills significantly increased.
