Welcome to the Center for Implementation-Dissemination of Evidence-Based Practices among States, known as the IDEAS Center, one of eight NIMH-funded ALACRITY Centers. We are the only ALACRITY Center dedicated to developing strategies to accelerate improvements in the quality of care received by children and families in state health and mental health systems. 

The Center, co-directed by Dr. Kimberly Hoagwood at NYU, and Dr. Mary McKay at The Brown School of Social Work at Washington University (St. Louis), builds on over two decades of partnership with Center stakeholders-- providers, parents and youth, and policymakers in NYS-- and pools significant research, training, administrative and scientific resources. 

Our transdisciplinary team includes nationally recognized expertise spanning seven academic disciplines (systems science and computational modeling, social work, child psychiatry, anthropology, health statistics, epidemiology and health policy and management) and six academic institutions, creating a truly unique laboratory.
 

Click here to join our growing community and help us in our efforts to accelerate the delivery of quality mental health services to children and families served in state health and mental healthcare systems.

Thanks for visiting our Center.
