The Pathways Clearinghouse identifies and reviews relevant studies, including impact, descriptive, and implementation studies, to collect details on how an intervention was implemented. We summarize information such as the amount of services received, the number of staff delivering services, and costs and benefits. For each intervention summary, we identify a key informant, who is usually the lead author on one or more of the studies. We share the draft implementation summary with the key informant to ensure accuracy and clarity.

The Pathways Clearinghouse reports implementation details for interventions with at least one outcome domain that has a well-supported or supported rating across the 10 outcome domains (increasing earnings, increasing employment, or decreasing benefit receipt in the short, long, or very long term, or increasing education and training). We focus on well-implemented interventions with supported outcomes because practitioners and decision makers might be interested in learning more about how to implement these interventions.

Begin by going to Find Interventions that Work, and use the "Select the settings" filter on the left under the heading "Limit results to interventions implemented: In urban or rural settings."

If you select "Rural only", the search will return interventions that have only been tested in rural settings plus those that have been tested in multiple studies and at least one of those studies occurred in an exclusively rural setting.
