The term “evidence-based intervention” describes service activities that are supported by research to indicate a high likelihood that the intervention will address the need and result in intended outcomes. This module provides detailed information on evidence and how using evidence can help you select an effective intervention. You will understand what evidence is, where to find strong evidence, and how to use evidence to tell you which intervention is likely to work for your situation. This module was created by the Corporation for National and Community Service.
