Over the past 15 years, EBA has served multiple states and counties in the areas of juvenile justice, child welfare, and behavioral health.
Our project support services address common implementation questions and concerns, such as:
• System Assessment: what are the gaps or needs in your current service system?
• Readiness Support: how do we get providers and stakeholders ready for EBPs?
• Program Implementation: how do we ensure we are implementing with high fidelity?
• Service Coordination: how do we make sure we’re matching the right service at the right time for the right children, youth, and family members?
EBA offers a team of professionals with backgrounds in social services, juvenile justice, evidence-based programs, information technology and human resources. EBA’s interdisciplinary team brings a combined total of more than 150 years of experience in clinical services and program management related to community-based and evidence-based programs.
