Description

A central goal of U.S. evidence-based policy reform is to focus government and philanthropic funding on social programs that have credible evidence of meaningful positive effects on people’s lives. The imperative for doing so is clear: Most social programs are unfortunately found not to produce the hoped-for effects when rigorously evaluated—a pattern that occurs not just in social policy but in other fields where rigorous evaluations are conducted, such as medicine and business.1 Thus, without a strong focus on evidence-based programs, it is hard to see how social policy can successfully address poverty, educational failure, violence, drug abuse, and other critical U.S. problems.
