Abstract
There has been an exponential growth in the interest in evidence-based health care (EBHC) since the term was first coined. With this interest, discussions arise about potential challenges and limitations to the practice of EBHC including the need for developing new skills, the need to have access to evidence, and the scarcity of evidence in support of its practice. Some of these challenges have been met but there is still work to be done in this field. In particular, attention must be paid on ensuring ready access to high quality evidence for all end-users. This journal is attempting to meet this need for speech-language pathology.
