Working to improve the health &
well-being of children & youth
The Evidence-Based Practice Institute (EBPI) is a partnership between the University of Washington and the Washington State Healthcare Authority (HCA), housed at CoLab. We promote the use of evidence-based practices in Washington State through training, research, workforce development, and data sharing.
EBPI was initially established as an independent institute in 2007 by the Washington State Legislature House Bill 1088, with the goal of strengthening the quality of public children's behavioral healthcare. Now, EBPI is housed under the broader umbrella organization of CoLab and continues to serve as a statewide resource to promote high quality mental health services for children and youth in Washington State.
