  8. Who Is Involved?

  9. Discussion: What is “Evidence-Based”? Evidence-Based Science-Based Evidence-Informed Model Programs Best Practices Proven Practices

  10. Evidence-Based Interventions (EBIs) • Included in Federal registries • Reported (with positive effects on the primary targeted outcomes) in peer-reviewed journals • Documented effectiveness using other sources of information

  11. Advantages: Using Federal Registries • Concise descriptions • Documented ratings of evidence • Practical information • One-stop convenience

  12. Challenges: Using Federal Registries • Offers a limited number of interventions • Includes interventions that are most easily evaluated using traditional scientific methods • Some information may be dated • May be confusing to the consumer

  13. Advantages: Using Peer-Reviewed Journals • Presents detailed findings/analyses to determine whether there is adequate evidence that an intervention works • Provides authors’ contact information to facilitate further discussion (e.g., appropriateness of intervention for target audience, current research, how to appropriately adapt) • In some cases, include meta-analyses

  14. Challenges: Using Peer-Reviewed Journals • Up to reader to interpret results and assess strength of evidence and applicability to specific population • Limited detail regarding activities and practical implementation issues, materials needed • Not all local communities have easy access to peer-reviewed journals or the knowledge or experience to search for interventions

  15. Using “Other Information Sources” Four Guidelines • Grounded conceptually in theory of change or logic model • Similar to formally recognized EBIs • Demonstrated effective implementation with a consistent pattern of positive outcomes • Judged appropriate by panel of informed prevention experts

  16. Advantages: Using “Other Information Sources” • Enables State and community planners to consider interventions that do not currently appear on Federal lists or in peer-reviewed literature but have potential • Provides opportunity for locally developed or adapted interventions to receive funding as an evidenced-based program (if they have adequate documentation of evidence)

  17. Challenges: Using “Other Information Sources” • Increased responsibility for selection of  appropriate programs and practices • Potential confusion and/or biases in the implementation of a transparent decision-making process for reviewing candidate interventions • Potential differing opinions of what is considered evidence makes the establishment of agreed-upon criteria for documentation to support intervention selection a challenge

  18. When to Use These Guidelines • When no appropriate interventions are available through primary sources to address: • Assessed community need • Population served • Cultural and community context

  19. Process to Select Best Fit Prevention Interventions

  20. Identifying and Selecting Evidence-Based Interventions • CSAP Website:http://prevention.samhsa.gov/evidencebased/evidencebased.pdf • CAPT Area of SAMHSA Website: http://captus.samhsa.gov • SAMHSA’s Health Information Network (SHIN): http://www.samhsa.gov/shin • Print copiesavailable: HHS Publication No. (SMA) 09-4205

  21. SAMHSA/NIDA Recommended Guidance • Details a “best process” for selecting interventions • Sets a “high bar” for standards of evidence to guide selection decisions • Recognizes that selection decisions are “context dependent”

  22. Utilizing Logic Models Discussion: • What is a logic model? • How can the logic model benefit my program?

  23. Community Logic Model Outcomes-Based Prevention • Guides selection of strategies that fit conceptual logic model • Addresses salient risk and protective factors and underlying conditions • Drives positive outcomes related to the priority problem

  27. When to Use These Four Guidelines When no appropriate interventions are available through primary sources to address: • Assessed community need • Population served • Cultural and community context To document innovation and emerging evidence-based practices – “Service to Science”
