The Innovative Practice Collaborative (formerly the Research Committee) provides information, resources and networking opportunities to support practical and effective strategies to use data and other information to guide program evaluation and improvement efforts. Collaborative members range from direct service professionals to researchers, all with an interest in using data in everyday practice, translating research to practice, conducting program evaluation, and implementing CQI processes. The Collaborative also initiates special projects based on member input and requests from the membership.

Members meet virtually on a monthly basis. To join the committee email: Mmitchell@ffta.org
