Research findings inform the development of our demonstration projects, direct service models that are rigorously tested to ensure effectiveness.

Demonstration
The Council’s demonstration projects are direct service models designed and evaluated for effectiveness by our staff. These models are informed by our research findings. When a model is proven to be effective, we advocate for its adoption. The model is then transitioned to direct service providers for long-term implementation.
