Quality of care is particularly low in community mental health settings, which are often staffed by untrained and poorly supervised providers, and feature significant staff attrition. Given the prevalence of social workers in mental health practice, and the state of available care, training for social workers providing mental health care is a public health good. Further, in light of social workers’ tendency toward working with underserved populations, training social workers in evidence-based practices is a social justice issue. Without such training, high quality care becomes something that can only be accessed by those who are well-resourced. aren't there WAY Too many commas here? I'm editing something and this person, I think, adds too many, commas, I'm wondering, do you agree? Should types and populations be pluralized in the second sentence?

They hyphenated "evidence-based" in its second mention, but not the first. Personally, I think that compound adjectives should always be hyphenated but there seems to be a growing resistance to it of late.

Maybe that's a regional thing but it's totally normal here. Edit: And everywhere. " The fact that we dislike a usage doesn’t make it incorrect."
