Interventions is designed to help teachers, counselors, specialists who have one or two students with challenging behaviors.  These behaviors can include chronically disrespectful, disruptive, failing academically, inactive and unresponsive, and physically dangerous or assaultive.  This workshop will help participants plan and implement validated, tiered strategies to increase motivation and improve behaviors.  Participants will learn how to use data to ascertain the reason for the behavior, apply targeted, evidence-based interventions, and evaluate results.  Interventions is a product of Safe and Civil Schools.
