... and the National Research Council Forum on Promoting Children's Cognitive, Affective, and Behavioral Health hosted the workshop "Harvesting the Scientific Investment in Prevention Science to Promote Children's Cognitive, Affective, and Behavioral Health" from June 16–17, 2014.1 Chaired by Dr. Mary Jane Rotherham-Borus, bat-Yaacov Professor of Child Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences, University of California, Los Angeles, the workshop considered how new technology and methods, combined with perspectives from health care, social welfare, school systems, and juvenile justice, can continue to shape the selection, implementation, and adaptation of preventive evidence-based interventions (EBIs)

... Creating shared value between business and social agencies, Kelleher said, is "the only hope we have" for keeping good interventions alive and for scaling them appropriately, though these kinds of partnerships will require rigorous outcome measures and intensive data collection. Kelleher cited the example of Partners for Kids, which serves as an accountable care organization filling the needs of 300,000 Ohio children by forging a successful partnership among managed-care organizations, hospitals, and physicians to streamline children's Medicaid insurance.

... Frank testified that ACA funding is fueling the expansion of Medicaid services into areas traditionally considered the domain of public health, such as the practice of making social services referrals. One barrier to this incorporation of services is that schools -- which make ideal settings for preventive screenings and assessments -- do not typically benefit directly from the savings secured by effective EBIs.

... Preventive Services Task Force and explained how the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality develops preventive recommendations aimed toward clinicians for child mental and behavioral health. The recommendations process is grounded in a careful literature review process supported by analytic modeling that addresses net benefits and harms to give each intervention a recommendation "grade." Kemper also presented on Bright Futures, a Health Resources and Services Administration program that makes recommendations on interventions targeted to different pediatric developmental periods.

... are among the most widespread and popular BIT EBIs, but most of them, Mohr said, are of poor quality and are neither widely evaluated nor widely used. Though BIT has shown promise with Web-delivered programs such as the depression EBI MoodGYM, Mohr said relying on interventions housed solely online is not completely effective.

... Measurements of EBI Effectiveness Can Be Tailored to Each Participating Community Study designs are developing beyond the limitations of standardized randomized controlled trials and can now test individual "pieces" of a specific EBI so interventions can be shaped to fit specific populations more flexibly and efficiently. These study design methods, such as sequential multiple assignment randomized trials (SMART)
