Abstract

ABSTRACT This review explores the findings from 12 articles that investigate how leaders in the child welfare sector support the implementation of evidence-based programs and evidence-informed practice. Systematic methods were employed for the searching, identification, and qualitative analysis of studies. The studies show leaders provide a vision for evidence-based approaches and cultivate organizational cultures for evidence and learning. Leaders support implementation through proactive planning and investment in supportive structures and processes, as well as develop capabilities for using evidence and maintaining relationships for implementation. Findings are discussed in relation to the role of leadership in bridging organizational and systemic contexts.
