ABSTRACT

Purpose: Community-based social work with families and youth with complex behavioral health needs highlights challenges to incorporating empirical evidence into routine practice. This article presents a framework for integrating evidence in community-based Systems of Care for these children and their families.

Method: This article reviews research on various approaches to integrating evidence into children’s behavioral health and community-based care and contextualizes it within dominant paradigms of Systems of Care (SoC) and Wraparound principles.

Results: Based on this review, this article proposes the Evidence-Based Practice in Systems of Care (EBP in SoC) model. The model describes how to incorporate evidence into every aspect of community-based SoCs for children with mental health concerns.

Discussion and Conclusion: Discussion of the model will focus on implications of using the framework for practitioners, mental health organizations, communities, and state and federal administration and policymaking.

摘要

目的：针对具有复杂行为健康需求的家庭和青年开展的基于社区的社会工作凸显了将经验证据纳入日常实践的挑战。本文提出了一个框架，用于将证据整合到这些儿童及其家庭的基于社区的护理系统中。

方法：本文回顾了将证据整合到儿童行为健康和社区护理中的各种方法的研究，并将其置于护理系统 (SoC) 和环绕原则的主导范式中。

结果：基于此审查，本文提出了护理系统中的循证实践（SoC 中的 EBP）模型。该模型描述了如何将证据纳入针对有心理健康问题的儿童的基于社区的 SoC 的各个方面。

讨论和结论：模型的讨论将侧重于使用该框架对从业者、精神卫生组织、社区以及州和联邦行政管理和决策的影响。
