RESUMEN
Families cannot easily identify and cope with the changing health problems and needs of children transitioning into adulthood. This pilot randomized controlled study aims to improve the family's quality of life and reduce mothers' perceived stress levels by implementing an educational program (Transition to Adulthood Training Program - TATP). A total of 33 mothers of children with intellectual disabilities were randomly assigned to the groups. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form, Beach Center Family Quality of Life (BCFQOL), and Perceived Stress Scale. The intervention group showed a significant increase in the BCFQOL mean score rather than the control group (p<.001). There was a significant decrease in the perceived stress scores of the mothers in the intervention group after the TATP training sessions (p<0.05). The TATP intervention not only increased the quality of family life for these mothers but also led to a reduction in their perceived stress levels.
