Title: Rejoinder to questions about the Fort Bragg evaluation.
Authors: Bickman, Leonard1, Lambert, E. Warren2, Summerfelt, Wm. Thomas2, Heflinger, Craig Anne3

Abstract: The article addresses several queries regarding the Fort Bragg Evaluation by Leonard Bickman et al. The continuum of care philosophy highlights the importance of delivering both the least restrictive and most appropriate services. Appropriateness entails matching needs with services delivered. The Fort Bragg Evaluation included youth of varying severity in a case mix that would be typical for a community mental health agency. Burchard also raised questions concerning whether the impact of the Demonstration on psychopathology would be greater if Bickman et al. examined only the children who received the intermediate services. Evan and Banks are perceptive in pointing out that the continuum of care field is still in its infancy. The Fort Bragg Evaluation recognized that providers lacked the experience to integrate and deliver the full array of services that were available in the Demonstration because of the novelty of these services. Most practitioners have no opportunities to use the treatment options that were available at the Demonstration. The authors claimed to be sensitive to the problem of testing a program that was not fully implemented. More than 97% of the outcome data in the Demonstration were collected 15 months after the Demonstration was funded and it took more than 30 months to collect all baseline data.
