About the Course

In recent years, evidence-based practices (EBPs) have become the foundation of clinical work and service delivery in the fields of medicine and behavioral health. The emphasis on EBPs is also important in homeless services. An Expert Panel on Evidence-Based Practices in Homeless Services discussed how to identify and implement evidence-based practices in the field. The purpose of this report is to summarize the panel discussion by highlighting key messages, conceptual issues, strategic directions, and next steps.

This course is based on the reading-based online article, Expert Panel on Evidence-Based Practices in Homeless Services created by Department of Health and Human Services
