Given the impressive amount of knowledge relevant to prevention efforts, this paper articulates strategies to capitalize on such knowledge through evidence-based decision making. Knowledge, or “evidence,” is understood here as coming from multiple sources, including research, individual people, group history, and relevant theory. The presented strategies to facilitate evidence-based decision making are: (1) intervention knowledge management; (2) collaborative design; (3) knowledge resources for intervention; and (4) developmentally sensitive training and supervision. Examples and benefits are outlined for each strategy. It is ultimately argued that evidence-based decision making embodies the scientific approach, and is worth consideration within primary prevention, given its early success in secondary intervention of youth mental health.
