This study examined factors associated with the predicted and actual post-funding sustainability of evidence-based interventions implemented as part of the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency's Research-Based Delinquency and Violence Prevention Initiative. Correlates of predicted post-funding sustainability included program staff, overall school support, and school administrator support. Additionally, predicted post-funding sustainability was strongly associated with actual post-funding sustainability. Other correlates of actual post-funding sustainability included financial sustainability planning and aligning the intervention with the goals of the agency/school. Five years post-funding 33% of the interventions were no longer operating, 22% were operating at a reduced level, and 45% were operating at the same level or a higher level than the final year of funding. These findings are discussed in terms of implications for increasing intervention sustainability, as well as implications for future research on intervention sustainability.
本研究考察了与宾夕法尼亚犯罪和 delinquency 委员会的基于研究的 delinquency 和 violence prevention Initiative 所实施的循证干预措施的预测和实际资金结束后可持续性相关的因素。预测资金结束后可持续性的相关因素包括项目工作人员、整体学校支持和学校管理人员支持。此外，预测资金结束后可持续性与实际资金结束后可持续性密切相关。实际资金结束后可持续性的其他相关因素包括财务可持续性规划和使干预措施与机构/学校的目标保持一致。资金结束后 5 年，33%的干预措施不再运作，22%的干预措施以较低的水平运作，45%的干预措施以与资金结束当年相同或更高的水平运作。这些发现从增加干预可持续性的意义以及对干预可持续性未来研究的意义方面进行了讨论。
