Exploring County-Level Resources Influencing Evidence-Based Practices and Treatment Uptake in Behavioral Health Settings.
Article in Corrections : policy, practice and research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Evidence-Based Practices and Treatments (EBPTs) are recommended to improve outcomes for individuals with behavioral health disorders and the service delivery system. However, costs associated with EBPTs are frequently cited as a barrier to implementation and sustainability. This study examines the relationship between existing and new resources and the availability of different types of EBPTs for individuals involved with criminal-legal systems (police, court, probation, and jail) in 519 U.S. counties. Significant predictors of EBPs in criminal justice programs (CJ-EBPs) and evidence-based treatments (EBTs) were identified using Poisson count regression models. Similar models were used to predict outcomes related to the availability of higher-, medium-, low-, and minimal-cost programs. More EBPs occur in counties with populations over 750,000, fewer individuals receiving behavioral health service, increased funding for intensive programs, more grants received, more skilled staff, in a Medicaid expansion state, and counties that participate in the Stepping-Up initiative. Specifically, Stepping-Up participation and Medicaid expansion were the only significant predictors for medium and minimal-cost CJ-EBPs. Existing staff resources coupled with a history of prior grants largely influence the availability of CJ-EBPs and EBTs. Improving county staffing patterns, particularly through peer support and resources may increase the availability of EBP and EBTs in a county.
