| Popis: | Family Connections is a peer-led education, skills, and support program for family members of individuals with borderline personality disorder. Extant literature on Family Connections is limited but consistent in regard to methodology and outcomes, allowing for meaningful cross-study comparison. Despite evidence across studies regarding the program's efficacy, a number of questions remain to be answered. Three possible future research directions were identified from the perspective of family members with lived experience who are also Family Connections peer leaders; examining Family Connections when led by peers, gathering qualitative data about family member's experiences of Family Connections to illuminate additional program benefits, and studying the efficacy of Family Connections for family members of those with other mental health disorders. |
