SAMHSA’s National Registry of Evidence-Based Programs and Practices (NREPP) Highlights New ResourcesThe Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) today added several new resources to its National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices (NREPP) Web site. These resources will assist program developers considering NREPP submissions, as well as individuals and organizations who are seeking to successfully implement evidence-based interventions. They include:
Implementation: Making an Evidence-Based Program Work for You – a learning module providing guidance on selecting an evidence-based intervention to match an organization’s needs, and successfully implementing a chosen program. Preparing an Intervention for NREPP Submission and Potential Review – a learning module providing a detailed description and helpful hints on the NREPP submission and review process. Evidence-Based Therapy Relationships – a research document highlighting how various elements of a therapy relationship (e.g., alliance, empathy, goal consensus) are associated with treatment effectiveness. Screening and Assessment Tools – links to Web sites that provide a compendium of validated screening and assessment instruments and tools for mental and substance use disorders.
To access these new resources, click on the “Learning Center” tab on the NREPP home page at www.nrepp.samhsa.gov.
