Technical assistance center on positive behavioral interventions and supports


This is a current project.


This project is continuing and expanding a national technical assistance center on Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) to strengthen and increase school-wide Positive Behavior Support (PBS) across the country. The project is developing a “brokerage approach” for technical assistance, enlarging school-wide PBIS to include students with the most extreme behavior support needs, and expanding the contexts where school-wide PBIS is effective to include urban schools and high schools.
