1. This bill requires federal agencies to use evidence-based practices for certain grants. 2. Agencies must clearly define the purpose and expected outcomes for each grant. 3. It prioritizes funding to organizations that demonstrate effective, evidence-based methods. 4. Grant recipients must use proven practices when providing services funded by these grants. 5. Agencies will evaluate the effectiveness of grant-funded activities and share results publicly.
Nonprofit organizations and communities that receive federal grants for various services will be directly impacted.
