Federal legislation now authorizes government funding for faith‐based initiatives to carry out social welfare service programs. The authors review recent trends in evaluation research on faith‐based programs by social workers. The authors discuss specific programmatic outcomes, limitations in faith‐based research, trends in faith‐based literature, and future research recommendation. We conclude that past research efforts by the social work profession are insufficient in the evaluation of faith‐based services. Our contention is that greater research efforts will promote the development of evidence‐based practice for faith‐based organizations and the social work profession
