Abstract
The purpose of this article is to identify how family-focused, community-based interventions can be implemented with refugee families in order to enhance their well-being and adaptation to their new communities. Past efforts at delivering these family support interventions using the Prevention and Access Interventions for Families (PAIF) framework to refugee families are reviewed. Through the case study application, recommendations for supporting refugee families are provided.
