Resources and Tools

The following is a collection of resources and tools identified by NREPP to support the selection and implementation of evidence-based programs and practices addressing substance abuse and mental health.

• Organizational Readiness for Change Assessment
  The Institute of Behavioral Research (IBR) at Texas Christian University (TCU) has developed this tool to measure aspects of organizational readiness for change. IBR also has developed a variety of other assessment tools for clients and staff. (Written permission for nonprofit research use of these instruments is not required; however, it is requested that IBR be notified of their use and that copies of reports based on these instruments be sent to IBR as a professional courtesy.)
