The Evidence Behind the Work

Our research program advances behavioral health practice through applied clinical research, outcomes evaluation, and the study of evidence-based implementation. We publish across a broad portfolio of psychosocial interventions, workforce development, and practice change.

Our research-related content is designed to support providers, organizations, and systems in using evidence-based and recovery-oriented approaches more effectively. In this section, you will find publications and educational resources that inform training, service delivery, and continuous improvement across behavioral health settings.
