Abstract

When developing and delivering community-based interventions to specialized populations such as homeless youths, implementing and maintaining principles of intervention fidelity are critical. In particular, intervention facilitator training must be consistent and ongoing, especially when an intervention is delivered in multiple sites by facilitators from multiple disciplines concurrently.
