QIC-AG Final Center Evaluation Report

The Final Center Evaluation Report documents the overall findings and lessons learned from the National Quality Improvement Center for Adoption/Guardianship Support and Preservation (QIC‑AG) across its five‑year project period (October 2015–July 2019). This report synthesizes results from all QIC‑AG partner sites and interventions, examining how a range of trauma‑informed, prevention‑oriented services were implemented to support children and families before and after adoption or guardianship finalization. It includes cross‑site analysis of implementation processes, outcomes related to child and family well‑being, and system‑level insights on building effective post‑permanency service continuums. The report serves as a comprehensive, evidence‑informed resource for policymakers, child welfare leaders, and practitioners seeking to strengthen adoption and guardianship preservation nationwide.
