The evidence-based practice (EBP) movement entered the profession of social work with all of the force and fury of a major revolution (OKPYCH &YU, p.3, 2014). According to OKPYCH and YU (2014), “EBP taps into a long-standing ambition that has captivated and eluded the field since its inception: to forge a service profession grounded in empirical research” (p.3). The evidence based practice that I will like to know more about when working on the macro and mezzo levels is Family Systems Theory. Family systems theory was developed by Dr. Murray Bowen as a way to allow each family member to work together to solve individual issues (“Good Therapy”, n.d.). One day I wish to begin a Non-Profit Organization for the at-risk children in my community.
