WELCOME!

This site explores the issues surrounding, and activities related to, the adoption and implementation of evidence-based practices (EBPs) in South Carolina. As national leaders, family members, consumers, communities, and researchers work together to transform the mental health system into one that is consumer-driven and provides state-of-the-art services, understanding how to incorporate programs/practices that have been empirically tested is one major focal point. These web pages are designed to provide an overview including research and current state and community activities surrounding adoption, implementation, and sustainability of evidence-based practices in South Carolina.

Please direct questions and comments concerning evidence-based practices to:
