The "Familismo" Coaching Model (FCM): Using a Values-Based Coaching Framework for Latino Caregivers
Adriana Luna
ProQuest LLC, Ph.D. Dissertation, University of Washington
With the rates of autism and the Latino population steadily rising in the United States, Latino families face marked disparities with access to timely and quality care. To date, there is little documented literature for how to best support Latino caregivers of young children with autism. Caregiver coaching is one method to disseminate evidence-based information and support families. The Latino community, however, carries unique cultural values and traditions that are critical in their overall family functioning, and it is therefore important to incorporate those Latino-specific values into a coaching framework. This study examined the effectiveness of family coaching model that combines evidence-based interventions, tenets of family-centered practice and literature on core Latino values to create the "Familismo" Coaching Model (FCM). This coaching intervention was measured through a non-concurrent multiple probe design to examine the effects of the FCM in teaching four foundational skills to Latino caregivers remotely. Results of the current study suggest that this intervention was effective at teaching caregivers skills based on the literature for young children with autism. This study also demonstrated high social validity with all three caregivers who completed the intervention.
