Successful adoption, implementation, improvement, and scale of empirically supported interventions holds the promise of improving the social, emotional, cognitive, and physical wellbeing of children and families in the Carolinas. Current system-wide conditions signal the need for a well-positioned Center of Excellence to serve as a partnership infrastructure to advance multi-partner readiness for public and private investments in, and well-supported implementation of empirically supported interventions.
This project aims to capitalize upon current intermediary organization functions provided to partners and projects supported by The Impact Center at Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute, including (1) the Implementation support for Triple P – Positive Parenting Program in the Carolinas and (2) the Rural Church Summer Literacy Initiative.
