title: Evaluating state level integration of human services.
abstract: The concept of human services integration as an efficient service delivery arrangement has been a popular idea for a number of years; but its practicality and capabilities are still relatively unclear. The authors describe an approach to developing a methodology for assessing services integration at the state level. This is a preliminary report on issues in integrated service delivery systems and their progress to date in creating research instruments for program evaluation in a large delivery system.
