Abstract
The essential features of contemporary evidence-based practice (EBP) are outlined, with specific reference to the applications of this model to various areas of social work, micro through macro. EBP is seen as a welcome addition to our field, representing a fuller and more comprehensive development of earlier and related positions such as empirical clinical practice within social work, and the delineation of empirically-supported therapies within psychology. Social work should proactively adopt EBP as its preferred conceptual model, reorient BSW and MSW training programs along the lines advocated by EBP, and inculcate these principles into the delivery of social work services. This is seen as both a professional and ethical imperative necessary for the survival of the field.
