ICF International achieves desired results by guiding clients through projects and planning processes that are grounded in rigorous research, thorough evaluation, and current practice in the field. Our work in the fields of child welfare, education, juvenile justice, welfare reform, workforce development, and military family research has helped create sound policies and innovative practices.
With the addition of Macro International in 2009, ICF Macro provides expertise in research, evaluation, consulting, and implementation services—particularly in federal health programs—covering a wide range of health issues in the United States and internationally. In addition to its health-related expertise, ICF Macro has strong credentials in housing, labor, and veterans affairs issues.
The hallmark of ICF’s research and evaluation studies is our ingenuity in blending research rigor with practical applications. We understand the programs being studied and the “real world” environments in which the research will be conducted and the results will be used. Our research staff is attuned to the technical assistance and training implications of study findings and the importance of communicating study results to a variety of audiences in the United States: Congress, federal policymakers and program managers, state and local program administrators, direct service personnel, the research community, and the public at large. |
