Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports

PCOE Public Facing Web Site

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support uses a multi-tiered systems framework to provide a continuum of positive behavior interventions for all students within a school. The intervention continuum includes Tier I, which is Primary Prevention for all students; Tier II provides additional targeted group interventions and supports for students needing more supports than Tier I provides; Tier III provides specialized and individualized supports and interventions for youth needing more intensive interventions.​​

The California PBIS Coalition  (CPC) is a collaborative organization using evidence-based, culturally relevant practices to build the capacity for all stakeholders in the implementation of PBIS as a multi-tiered system following the National PBIS Blueprints for professional development, implementation, and evaluation.  www.pbi​sca.org
