This paper compares outcomes for Hispanic and non-Hispanic families in Celebrating Families!™ (CF!), a family-centered practice designed to break the cycle of intergenerational adverse experiences and substance use problems. Pre- and posttest measures from both in-person and online both in-person and online CF! programs showed improvements in parenting skills, family strengths, and parental self-efficacy, regardless of ethnicity or primary language. Case examples illustrate how CF! can be adapted culturally and address the unique stressors experienced by vulnerable Hispanic families. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
