Tennessee – Final Evaluation Report presents the comprehensive findings from the QIC‑AG evaluation of the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT) as implemented in Tennessee. The report examines how this intensive, trauma‑informed, brain‑based intervention was used to support children and families before and after adoption or guardianship finalization. It details the study design, target population, implementation processes, and fidelity to the NMT model, along with outcomes related to child behavioral and emotional functioning, caregiver understanding of trauma, and family stability. As a full evaluation report, this resource provides in‑depth evidence on the effectiveness and challenges of using an intensive post‑permanency intervention to strengthen adoption and guardianship preservation and inform future replication in child welfare systems.
