Introduction: Technology has been used in evidence-based child maltreatment (CM) programs for over a decade. Although advancements have been made, the extent of the application of technology in these programs, and its influence on parental and child outcomes, remains unclear within the context of changes that emerged because of the COVID-19 pandemic. This scoping review provides a contextualized overview and summary of the use of technology in evidence-based parenting and child programs serving families impacted by child maltreatment and the effects of technology-enhanced programs on target outcomes.

- The paper discusses a new intervention called Smoke-Free Home SafeCare (SFH-SC), which combines two evidence-based programs to address secondhand tobacco smoke exposure and child maltreatment at home.
- The systematic braiding process involved identifying key elements from both programs, creating a draft curriculum, conducting a pilot study with caregivers of young children, and gathering feedback from both caregivers and SafeCare Providers.
- Preliminary results showed positive engagement from caregivers, a slight increase in smoke-free home rules, reduced parental stress, and high feasibility ratings from providers, suggesting that SFH-SC could effectively support at-risk families.
