Managing and Adapting Practice (MAP)

Our Comprehensive Evidence Informed Services Support System Read More

The MAP system is designed to improve the quality, efficiency, and outcomes of children’s mental health services by giving practitioners easy access to the most current scientific information and by providing user-friendly measurement tools and clinical protocols. Using an online database, the system can suggest formal evidence-based programs or, alternatively, can provide detailed recommendations about discrete components of evidence-based treatments relevant to a specific youth’s characteristics. Whether services are delivered through existing evidence-based programs or assembled from components, the MAP system also adds a unifying evaluation framework to track outcomes and practices.

Please see our Managing and Adapting Practice page for more information about the MAP system. Our community pages and online learning courses provide additional information and resources about the MAP system.

Services are customized; please email inquiries to [email protected]

AGENCY SUPERVISOR

MAP offers a great way to provide and structure supervision and I LOVE the dashboards!

PUBLIC SCHOOL SERVICES ADMINISTRATOR

PracticeWise MAP is the magical bridge over the chasm between research and practice. The MAP trainers are the pied pipers leading us over the bridge. The practice stories and role plays have also been genius in helping to integrate theory, research and clinical practice. I thought the revolution would be bloody and violent and it was not. Thanks for doing the work on this - it's brilliant in its simplicity.

SCHOOL-BASED SERVICES SUPERVISOR

For the first time, in a long time; there is a new program that has been created that is both user-friendly and very thorough. The more involved I become, the more I continue to learn. The program looks very straight forward, but actually is very dense, in a useful way. As clinicians, looking at our work, our decisions and the choices we have in front of us is not always the focus of what we do. Your program asks and helps us to make better decisions from beginning to end and the Dashboard - GENIUS!!!

MAP DIRECT SERVICE TRAINEE

I can honestly say that this has been the most informative, entertaining, and applicable training I have ever participated in! Thank you! :)

MAP DIRECT SERVICE TRAINEE

PracticeWise consultants provided fast, clear and reliable responses to questions.

MAP DIRECT SERVICE TRAINEE

PracticeWise consultation was practical, clinical, personal, consistent. I feel very supported & accepted & encouraged & information was freely shared. It was a collegial environment & I was built up & given step-by-step advice when needed. I learned how to use the program, but also how to conceptualize treatment from start to finish. I am deeply grateful for having my MAP Consultant.
