This issue offers four in-depth articles. Two of them present our first ever "Member Interviews". These interviews feature two executives who continue to lead their organizations and staff of professionals through the process of becoming and staying evidence-based from the ground up. Having invested significant time and resources in the process, they generously share their experiences, lessons learned and make some recommendations we can all learn from. Thank you.
