The second edition of Developing Your School's Student Support Teams offers practical guidance for current and future practitioners working in/with schools to establish, facilitate, and sustain coordinated teams in support of students' social, emotional, and behavioral health. Students come to school each day with a range of issues that complicate their learning, engagement, and overall well-being. While school psychologists, counselors, social workers, and nurses are employed in many school districts, their schedules often make it difficult to collaborate effectively in developing and implementing comprehensive intervention plans. This book is filled with strategies designed to address these issues.

This revised edition includes new and updated approaches to:

• Collaboration, co-location of services, and memorandums of understanding
• Linking mental health and education
• Safe schools and violence prevention
• Care coordination/case management
• Attendance improvement
• School wellness centers that meet FERPA and HIPPA requirements
• And much more!

Readers will have access to a wealth of supplementary online resources, including checklists, sample interventions, communication templates, staff input forms, and beyond. With these proactive, field-tested teamwork strategies and ancillary materials, school staff will be better prepared to share tasks and accountability and to identify and build upon the existing strengths and supports of every student.
