Evidence-Based Treatment Models

Child Welfare Information Gateway | Evidence Based Practice

Evidence-based treatment means that the techniques being used are backed with solid, research-supported evidence and encourage the use of safe and effective approaches that are likely to achieve results. The Enhanced Foster Care team recommends these models because it means they are grounded in scientific research and tied to best outcomes for the child and family.
