    Our evidence-based interventions are: research-based.,cost-effective.,successful long-term.

    Research-based

    Our interventions are backed by decades of research, and the organizations who carry out the interventions follow strict ongoing adherence standards. 

    Cost-effective

    Out-of-home placement into justice systems, foster care, and residential mental health facilities are proven to be costly. Our interventions lessen the need for out-of-home placements and save community dollars.

    Successful Long-term

    Studies show that our evidence-based approaches demonstrate positive results long after program completion.
