Session 2: How to choose the right EBP for my community?

Description: The second session will dive deeper into a three-step process for choosing the right evidence-based program (EBP) to meet your community’s needs. Step 1 includes assessing your community’s needs and priorities. Step 2 uses the information from Step 1 to identify and narrow your EBP options by considering the type of EBP needed. Step 3 involves comparing EBPs by assessing their strength of evidence and degree of fit with your community’s needs and resources. Throughout this session, the presenters will provide tools and resources to help support the three-step process.
