Evidenced-Based Pactices Provider Online Surveys

Evidenced-Based Practices (EBPs) are those that have been proven effective through scientific research and evaluation. The widespread and appropriate use of EBPs can dramatically increase the efficacy and efficiency of a service-delivery system. In 2007, WIMHRT surveyed a total of 281 agencies from the Mental Health Division, the Division of Alcohol & Substance Abuse (DASA), Juvenile Rehabilitation Administration (JRA) and the Children’s Administration (CA) to assess the utilization and effectiveness of mental health evidenced-based practices in Washington State.

Mental Health Transformation Grant Surveys

ROSI / Transformation Grant Telephone Survey

In 2006, WIMHRT conducted a telephone survey of 668 randomly selected adult mental health consumers across Washington State. This survey was part of an ongoing assessment of the State’s efforts to transform mental health services into a more recovery-oriented system, in accordance with the aims of the Mental Health Transformation Grant. Respondents were asked about their experiences and perceptions of current mental health services, as well as stigma based on their mental illness.
