Book excerpt: "The purpose of this project was to design an effective counseling group with the goal of making education and treatment available in Spanish and with cultural considerations for Latino families of a child diagnosed with autism. A review of the literature has shown that health care disparities exist for many Latino families, often preventing them from receiving education on autism and treatment for family issues that emerge once a child has been diagnosed. Latino families who are not supported with services in their language are at higher risk for parental stress that can lead to negative mental health manifestations. Latino families can benefit from group counseling that is based on solution focused brief therapy. A ten week solution focused group called Fuente de Soluciones Familiares that includes a psychoeducational intervention is proposed to assist these families to explore information about autism, express their needs as a family unit, and discuss plans and strategies for the future."--Abstract, p. 1.
