What are evidence-based programs or interventions?
Evidence-based programs, practices, and interventions (sometimes referred to as EBIs) are approaches to prevention, behavioral intervention, or treatment that are validated by some form of documented scientific evidence to indicate their effectiveness. Programs, practices, and interventions that are based on tradition, convention, belief, or anecdotal evidence are not evidence based.
