This manuscript describes two projects aimed at increasing access to EBTs. The first is a completed field trial of an adapted parent\u2013child interaction therapy intervention with foster-parent child dyads. New findings are presented from variable- and person-centered analyses of impact on diverse symptom profiles. The second is an ongoing statewide initiative that is increasing access to multiple EBTs while navigating implementation barriers. Lessons learned for bridging gaps between children\u2019s mental health research, services, and policy are discussed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/link.springer.com\/article\/10.1007\/s10488-020-01011-8\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Link to publication<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mersky, J.P., Topitzes, J., Janczewski, C.E., Plummer Lee, C., McGaughey, G., &amp; McNeil, C.B.
