越来越多的人认为，实施循证干预和治疗模式有望提高儿童公共服务系统的服务质量，如心理健康，少年司法和儿童福利。最近的政策倡议将这种基于研究的服务纳入公共服务系统，这对扩大有关执行方法的知识造成了压力。实验策略需要在真实的世界背景下测试多层次的实施模型。在这篇文章中，一项随机试验的初始阶段，测试两种方法实施多维治疗寄养（一种基于证据的干预，跨越儿童公共服务系统）在40个非早期采用加州县。结果表明，使用随机设计的可行性，严格测试对比的实施模式和从事系统领导人参加试验。
There is a growing consensus that implementation of evidence-based intervention and treatment models holds promise to improve the quality of services in child public service systems such as mental health, juvenile justice, and child welfare. Recent policy initiatives to integrate such research-based services into public service systems have created pressure to expand knowledge about implementation methods. Experimental strategies are needed to test multi-level models of implementation in real world contexts. In this article, the initial phase of a randomized trial that tests two methods of implementing Multidimensional Treatment Foster Care (an evidence-based intervention that crosses child public service systems) in 40 non-early adopting California counties is described. Results are presented that support the feasibility of using a randomized design to rigorously test contrasting implementation models and engaging system leaders to participate in the trial.
