Developed by renowned PAR Neuropsychologist Dr. Steven Feifer, the FACT measures how stress and trauma impact students in a school-based setting and guides clinicians in formulating targeted interventions that better meet the needs of students.
Key Benefits of the FACT:
The FACT is now available for any school psychologist working with students/children. "This is not just an assessment; it's a lifeline for students grappling with trauma," says Greco. "We feel so strongly about the impacts of this assessment within our educational system, that we are donating the FACT to several school districts throughout the country."
