Evidence Based Practices


Description:
Evidence Based Practices are on the rise in each State of the country. EBP are clearly defined and can be found and researched with little difficulty. You can choose from the list of topics below or come up with your own topic if it meets the criteria of EBP. You are required to use at least 3 outside (you can"t use Juvenile Justice in America (any edition) by Clemens Bartollas, or Stuart J. Miller , no wikipediaI) resources for your paper.
You are to complete and a 6-8 page paper. Your paper is to be APA formatted and include a title and reference page. The title page and references page do not count in the total number of pages.
In addition to providing research/information on the chosen topic, you are to locate a PARTICULAR PROGRAM using your EBP and include in your paper the following:
Name and location of the program
Types of youth in the program
How long the program has been in existence
How do we know it is an EBP? (Provide proof such as quantitative data which is a principle of EBP)

Here are some possible topics:
Functional Family Therapy (FFT), Multi-systemic Therapy (MST), Multi-Dimensional Treatment Foster Care (MDTFC); Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT); Aggression Replacement Therapy (ART).

Evidence Base Practices are defined as: Evidence-based practices as applied to the juvenile justice arena, refers generally to programs, practices, and policies used to prevent and reduce youth crime that have been documented to be effective through rigorous evaluation.

Another term for EBP is "Best Practices" or "What Works". Good google search terms.
Almost any program can be an EBP or "Best Practices" if they meet the criteria.
If you are struggling to show your topic is an EBP, get a different topic.
