简要总结
The VA Grant and Per Diem (GPD) case management aftercare program provides six months of case management for homeless-experienced Veterans undergoing housing transitions. This Partnered Implementation Initiative (PII) proposes to implement and evaluate Critical Time Intervention (CTI)-an evidence-based, structured, and time-limited case management practice-in 32 GPD case management aftercare sites across the nation.
详细描述
The VA Grant and Per Diem case management (GPD-CM) program provides six months of case management for homeless-experienced Veterans (HEVs) undergoing housing transitions. At present, no specific case management paradigm is required in the GPD-CM program, resulting in practice variation across sites. This Partnered Implementation Initiative (PII) implements Critical Time Intervention (CTI)-an evidence-based, structured, and time-limited case management practice-at 32 VA GPD-CM sites. The investigators will use the Replicating Effective Programs (REP) implementation bundle to support CTI implementation at all 32 sites. Half of these sites will also receive 9 months of external facilitation (enhanced REP) as additional support for CTI implementation. In a type 3 hybrid trial, the investigators will use mixed methods to examine the impacts of REP versus enhanced REP. Using trial data, the investigators will develop a business case analysis and implementation playbook for the investigators' program partners to support continued CTI spread and sustainment in the GPD-CM program.
