We provide assessment and intervention resources for school mental health practitioners.
Use these tools to guide mental health screening practices in your school.
These tools help schools find mental health interventions that will best meet their student needs.
A suite of brief problem identification tools for students in need of Tier 2 support.
Mental-health Assessment and Support Cost Out Tool (MASCOT)
The Mental-Health Assessment and Support Cost Out Tool (MASCOT) compares the cost of universal screening procedures and subsequent supportive services to the costs of typical school discipline (i.e., Office Discipline Referrals, Disciplinary Meeting). The MASCOT utilizes the realistic salaries, intervention costs and disciplinary actions to simulate both the humanistic and financial cost to supporting students’ behavioral success.
We develop resources to help schools support the mental health needs of their students. Use our resources to implement the Resilience Education Program (REP), Check-in/Check-Out (CICO), or Teachers and Parents as Partners (TAPP) in your school.
Check-in/Check-out Fidelity Checklists
A series of checklists to assess whether key steps in the Check-in/Check-out (CICO) intervention are completed well. When school staff consistently complete the key steps, they increase the likelihood that CICO will produce positive outcomes. The CICO Checklists can be used as part of the Resiliency Education Program or independently.
The Resilience Education Program (REP) is a targeted Tier 2 intervention for students at risk for internalizing concerns, such as depression and anxiety.
We partner with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln on the "Teachers and Parents as Partners" intervention. Their site provides webinars and training videos.
