Intervention research in social work is the study of social, mental health and health services interventions, which aim to improve the conditions of individuals, groups and communities. Outcomes of intervention research and the process of evidence-based social work practice are the backbone of evidence-based interventions/treatments. With the amazing advancement of evidence-based practice and the implementation of translational research taking place nationally and internationally, it seems timely to explore the state of science in social work intervention research, specifically to summarize achievements and formulate future challenges.
