Using Evidence Clause Samples
The 'Using Evidence' clause defines how parties may present, handle, and rely on evidence within the context of a contract or legal proceeding. It typically outlines the types of evidence that are admissible, such as documents, witness statements, or electronic records, and may set procedures for submitting or challenging such evidence. By establishing clear rules for the use and evaluation of evidence, this clause ensures fairness and transparency in resolving disputes or verifying compliance with contractual obligations.
Using Evidence. Based Practices
Using Evidence. Based Practices SAMHSA’s services grants are intended to fund services or practices that have a demonstrated evidence base and that are appropriate for the population(s) of focus. An evidence-based practice (EBP) refers to approaches to prevention or treatment that are validated by some form of documented research evidence. The Zero Suicide model has been developed as an overarching framework for the systematic application of evidence-based suicide prevention practices in health care. However, SAMHSA recognizes that EBPs have not been developed for all populations and/or service settings. See Appendix A of this document for additional information about using EBPs. In Section C of your project narrative, you will need to: Identify the evidence-based practice(s) you propose to implement for individuals in partnering agencies. If an EBP does not exist/apply for your program/population(s) of focus, describe the service/practice you plan to implement as an appropriate alternative. Selected EBPs should directly impact all seven required elements of the Zero Suicide model. If you are proposing to use more than one evidence-based practice, describe which elements of the Zero Suicide model each EBP will include and their potential outcomes. Discuss the population(s) for which the practice(s) has (have) been shown to be effective and show that it (they) is (are) appropriate for your population(s) of focus. Indicate whether/how the EBP will be adapted for each partnering agency and the individuals served. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ encourages you to consult with an expert or the program developer to complete any modifications to the chosen EBPs. This is especially important when adapting EBPs for specific underserved populations for whom there are fewer EBPs. In selecting an EBP, be mindful of how your choice of an EBP or practice may impact disparities in service access, use, and outcomes for your population(s) of focus. While this is important in providing services to all populations, it is especially critical for those working with underserved and minority populations.
