Intermediary

As a statewide center or partnership that supports state and local child‐ and family‐serving agencies in designing, implementing, and sustaining evidence‐based programs (Mettrick et al., 2015). A key characteristic of intermediary organizations is that they support more than one program or practice (e.g., PCANC’s array of program supports).
