Unlock the Full Potential of Your System with Evidence-Based Insights
At Evidence-Based Associates (EBA), we help agencies evaluate their needs and identify gaps in their array of evidence-based services for children, youth, and families. By leveraging our System Assessment / Gap Analysis (SAGA) assessment process —clients can gain access to a structured, data-informed evaluation of infrastructure, processes, and system readiness for change. Backed by 20+ years of experience, our EBP agency assessment approach helps build a tailored, data-driven roadmap to the high-quality implementation and sustainment of EBPs that best meet the needs of their communities.
Core Components
Organizational Readiness Analysis
We assess leadership alignment, staffing levels, funding streams, and stakeholder involvement to evaluate your system’s capacity to adopt evidence-based practices. This analysis helps identify strengths, barriers, and next steps for successful implementation.
Service Landscape Review
We map services to uncover duplications, gaps, and inefficiencies. This review supports smarter resource allocation, increased service access, and alignment with evidence-based interventions that better meet the needs of youth and families in your region.
Data & Evaluation Capacity
We evaluate your system’s ability to collect, analyze, and apply data to improve outcomes. This includes reviewing quality assurance systems, accountability measures, and readiness to track performance and impact over time using evidence-based benchmarks.
Cultural & Linguistic Responsiveness
We assess how effectively your services meet the cultural and linguistic needs of diverse communities. Our review identifies equity gaps and offers strategies to ensure that programming is inclusive, accessible, and responsive to all populations served.
