Description:
This book builds on the burgeoning evidence-informed practice movement in social welfare that evolved from evidence-based medicine some twenty years ago. A meaningful and inclusive approach to evidence-informed practice is used to gather key insights from several child welfare systems to promote an understanding of the role of context in generating, interpreting, and employing evidence, and to provide guidance for integrating evidence and context in the provision of child welfare services.
