Over 18,000 schools engaged in
implementation of SWPBIS (MTSS ) prevention

Current focus on capacity to scale-up
MTSS as platform to install effective
interventions for youth w/or at-risk of EBD

Emphasis now on scaling with expansion
and connection to other systems
◦ i.e. academic, juvenile justice, mental health,
child welfare, systems of care

Emphasis on deliberate actions that foster

Sparse availability of MH providers in schools
Labels and ‘places’ confused with
interventions
Separate delivery systems (Sp.Ed., Mental
health, etc.)
Minimal accountability for outcomes for most
vulnerable populations



Schools supporting promoting MH of ALL
students
Prevention, early access, interventions
commensurate with level of need (vs. label)
School personnel feel confident and
competent in identifying and intervening with
accuracy and effectiveness
◦ Kids with MH needs require multifaceted
education/behavior and mental health supports
◦ The usual systems have not routinely provided a
comprehensive, blended system of support.
◦ Supports need to be provided in a clustered and
integrated structure,
◦ Academic/behavior and mental health supports
need to be efficiently blended
Simple and complex supports require integrated
systems with foundation of a school-wide system
 Schools and community serve as protective factor
 Problem-solving teams with
school/family/youth/community voice
 Use of data for decision-making (screening/ selection
and monitoring/outcomes)
 Layers supports from the foundational/universal to the
more complex
ISF provides structure and process for
education and mental health systems to
interact in most effective and efficient way.
◦ Guided by key stakeholders in education and mental health system
who have the authority to reallocate resources, change role and
function of staff, and change policy.
◦ Applies strong interdisciplinary, cross-system collaboration.
◦ Uses the tiered prevention logic as the overall organizer to
develop an action plan.
◦ Involves cross system problem solving teams that use data to
decide which evidence based practices to implement.
◦ Involves ongoing progress monitoring for both fidelity and
impact.
◦ Emphasizes active involvement by youth, families, and other
school and community stakeholders.

Tier I: Universal/Prevention for All
Coordinated Systems, Data, Practices for
Promoting Healthy Social and Emotional Development
for ALL Students
 School Improvement team gives priority to
social and emotional health
 Mental Health skill development for
students, staff/, families and communities
 Social Emotional Learning curricula for all
 Safe & caring learning environments
 Partnerships : school, home & community
 Decision making framework guides use of
and best practices that consider unique
strengths and challenges of each school
community

Universal screening for social, emotional, and
behavioral at-risk indicators
Universal screening for families who may request
assistance for their children
Teaching social skills with evidence-based curricula
to all students
Teaching appropriate emotional regulation and
expression to all students
Teaching behavioral expectations to all students
Mental health professionals are part of the Tier 1
systems team, providing input and progress
monitoring data
Opportunity to review community data and expand
Tier 1 intervention options based on data
Interconnected Systems Framework
Tier 2: Early Intervention for Some
Coordinated Systems for Early Detection, Identification,
and Response to Mental Health Concerns
 Systems Planning Team coordinates referral
process, decision rules and progress monitors
 Array of services available
 Communication system: staff, families and
community
 Early identification of students at risk for
mental health concerns due to specific
risk factors
 Skill-building at the individual and groups
level as well as support groups
 Staff and Family training to support skill
development across settings

Working smarter matrix completed to ensure key
resources are both efficient and effective (i.e.,
initiatives are aligned and combined such as “bully

Groups co-facilitated by school staff and community
partner (example – guidance counselor and
community provider clinician)
Opportunity to expand the continuum of

Individual Student and Family Supports
 Systems Planning team
coordinates decision
rules/referrals and progress
monitors
 Individual team developed to
support each student

interventions/services
 Plans can range from one to
multiple life domains
 System in place for each team

Mental health professional(s) part of tertiary

Quicker access to community-based supports
for students and families


A District/Community leadership that
includes families, develops, supports and
monitors a plan that includes:
Community partners participate in all three
levels of systems teaming in the building:
Universal, Secondary, and Tertiary


Team of SFC partners review data and design
interventions that are evidence-based and
can be progress monitored
MH providers from both school & community
develop, facilitate, coordinate and monitor all
interventions through one structure
Quick Reflection :
What features of the ISF are in place
in your district/community?
1. Mental health providers participate in Tier 1/Universal
Behavior Support Teams, assisting in
selection/design/delivery of behavioral support through
Tier 1/Universal curriculum for all students?
2. Community/mental health partners participate on Tier
2/3 systems teams in tandem with school personnel to
review data , identify students with Tier 2/3 needs and
design interventions?
3. ALL social/emotional/mental health interventions are
monitored through blended teams (school & mental
health personnel) using data?


Pennsylvania has a diverse service delivery system

Understanding, accessing and obtaining services
is difficult and confusing

Current services are based on diagnoses and
problems rather than building on strengths and
needs, limited focus on prevention

Services are fragmented

Limited youth & family participation in many areas

All systems struggle to serve youth with complex
behavioral health needs, multi-system involvement
and their families

Formerly known as Healthy Transitions Initiative
(HTI)
 A five year systems change state/community partnership
to create developmentally appropriate and effective youth
guided local systems of care that will improve outcomes
for transitioning youth with mental health and cooccurring disorders in the areas of:
 education,
 employment,
 housing,
 and decrease contacts with juvenile and criminal justice
systems toward a goal of
 Effecting statewide policy change and replication
 Improving the capacity of communities to effectively
serve these youth and young adults

Service tunnels – services are largely provided
within segregated service systems, not
integrated across systems; policy, regulations,
eligibility criteria not aligned (i.e., mental health,
juvenile justice, social service/foster care,
education)
Age transition cliffs – services end due to an
increase in age rather than a change in the need
for the service (Child and adolescent mental
health system versus adult mental health system
–differing eligibility criteria, priority population,
service types)

Develop empirically-supported services and supports

A new report indicates that young adults (ages 18–25)
taking part in community-based treatment programs
achieve positive outcomes in behavioral and
emotional health, daily life skills, employment,
enrollment in school, and reduced homelessness. This
report by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration (SAMHSA) also shows that
older adolescents and young adults who had
