Summary: | Within community-based prevention initiatives, there is often a disconnection between research and practice (Waddell 2001). Although extensive effort and substantial resources are invested inthe development of community-based interventions, the uptakeof these interventions in practice has often been minimal and short-lived (Leadbeater 2010).
