Proof & Hearsay was named to the 2010 ABA Journal Blawg 100, an annual lineup of the hottest titles in the legal blogosphere as chosen by the Journal's editors.

The Quality Assessment of Community Evidence Tools were created by reviewing existing frameworks, tools and measures for appraising population health and community evidence. The developers identified consistent themes, which yielded the three core dimensions of quality described in the Quality Assessment of Community Evidence Tools: relevant, trustworthy and equity-informed. Questions to inform each of the three dimensions are provided in table format for each source of evidence. In many cases, the suggested questions draw on published tools.

Supplementary tools are included with each version of the Quality Assessment of Community Evidence Tool. Below is a list of resources to explore if you are interested in knowing more about how to assess the quality of a particular dimension. If you find that the quality of currently available evidence is poor or limited, these resources can help you improve the quality of future evidence and documentation.

Evidence-informed decision making in public health uses the best-available evidence to inform decisions. The National Collaborating Centre for Methods and Tool’s (NCCMT’s) model for evidence-informed decision making in public health identifies sources of evidence into four domains: local health issues and local context; community and political preferences and actions; resources; and research. It is important to assess whether the quality of evidence is good enough to influence decision making.
