Join us for a conversation about the effective use of research in youth services practice. This session will explore the role of research evidence in strengthening youth programs; the utilization of such evidence by practitioners, funders, policy makers, and collective "networks;" and the impact of research on development of a "continuous improvement process." Funders will also discuss their roles in bridging research and practice and supporting grantees in translating theory into their everyday work.
Explore
- The role of research evidence in strengthening diverse youth programs
