Belief Statement

The FCT Foundation's focus on evidence-based practices emphasizes the importance of research and data in shaping clinical guidelines and improving professional practices. They advocate for the development of best practices based on sound evidence, ensuring that clinical outcomes are optimized and that interventions are implemented effectively.

In the context of clinical practice, while theories and guidelines may be based on good intentions, the foundation acknowledges that they can often be underdeveloped or not fully implemented. By prioritizing evidence-based approaches, the FCT Foundation seeks to bridge this gap, fostering the development of both new and existing practices that are not only theoretically sound but also effective in real-world applications. This guidance aims to scale up successful programs and bring about more consistent and improved outcomes in clinical settings.
