Abstract:
EBTs have almost exclusively been developed and tested outside of typical service clinic settings. As a result, treatment development has proceeded with limited to no involvement with many of the relevant stakeholders, including community clinic staff (providers, administrators) and families. The development of collaborative partnerships between clinical scientists and community stakeholders represents a promising pathway to make EBT a reality.Keywords:
