SMHAs have been working to incorporate evidence-based practices (EBPs)--services that have been demonstrated by extensive research to provide positive results--into their community-based mental health service systems. This report focuses on the provision of 7 adult focused EBPs and 5 Child/Adolescent EBPs. The report reviews their level of implementation by states, measurement of fidelity to the EBP model, initiatives by states to support the adoption of EBPs, including partnering with universities and others to support EBP implementation.
