Participants who complete the training can access reduced cost materials needed to facilitate PSF groups with families.

Individualized Intervention
This professional development program provides content and resources to support the use of evidence-based problem solving to develop individualized social and emotional interventions for children ages 18 months to 8 years who are being cared for in Early Childhood Education settings.
While content addresses the “Intensive Intervention” tier of the Pyramid Model, discussion will focus on how and whether individualized support can be distinct from high quality universal and targeted practices promoted in Pyramid Model teacher training content. Specifically, this program will emphasize the intersection between function-based intervention and infant and early childhood mental health consultation.
Intended Audience
This program is designed for people who, working with teams, create and sustain individualized support for young children who exhibit behavior that challenges adults (e.g. home visitors, Head Start education directors/consultants, Birth to 3 teachers/therapists, early childhood special educators/therapists, school psychologists, mental health consultants or therapists.)
