Penfield Children's Center- Behavior Clinic [1]

Penfield Children's Center (PCC) provides evidence-based home-based trauma-focused treatment in Milwaukee County, WI, as well as expand services to neighboring Waukesha County, for children, ages 0 to 6, who have been exposed to (experienced or witnessed) potentially traumatic events and have trauma symptoms. The EBP, Early Pathways (EP), was developed specifically at PCC to treat very young children exposed to trauma by Marquette University (MU) faculty. The success of this home-based approach for this population has been well-documented in multiple studies, including four randomized controlled trials (RCTs) documenting effectiveness for reducing disruptive behavior disorders and externalizing/antisocial behaviors, improving the family-child relationship, improving general functioning and well-being, improving social functioning/competence, reducing unspecified and other mental health disorders, and improving parenting behaviors.
