An easy-to-read resource with reproducible handouts, it can best be described as a "how-to-book" for cultivating collaboration. This manual presents the first empirically supported homework intervention approach developed for families coping with children with ADHD in grades 1-6. The book provides instructions for setting up the program, recruiting and selecting participants, and conducting each of the seven sessions. Practitioners learn how to implement instructional and behavioral interventions to facilitate collaborative home-school relationships, foster effective study skills and work habits, and enhance family functioning and children's self-esteem. This manual is an invaluable resource for school psychologists and counselors, clinical child psychologists and other mental health practitioners, and special education professionals. It provides strategies for developing cohesive teams as well as suggestions for implementing successful outcomes.
