Collaborative & Proactive Solutions: Understanding and Helping Students with Social, Emotional, and Behavioral Challenges

The Indiana Resource Center for Autism, the Indiana School Mental Health Initiative, and the Indiana Institute on Disability and Community, in collaboration with the Noblesville School Corporation are sponsoring a workshop presented by Ross W. Greene, Ph.D., on November 9th in Noblesville, Indiana.

This workshop covers the empirically supported model that Dr. Ross Greene describes in his influential books, The Explosive Child and Lost at School. The CPS model has transformed thinking and practices in countless schools, inpatient psychiatry units, and residential and juvenile detention facilities, and has been associated with dramatic reductions in disciplinary referrals, detentions, suspensions, seclusions, and physical, chemical and mechanical restraints. The model represents a significant departure from discipline-as-usual: it focuses on solving problems rather than on modifying behavior, emphasizes collaborative rather than unilateral solutions, encourages proactive rather than reactive intervention, de-emphasizes diagnostic categories, and provides practical, research-based tools for assessment and intervention.

New Library Materials

July has come and gone, and August has arrived. Wondering what’s new in the Library? Each month, we take a look back at the previous month to see what new items were received and placed in the collection. We got in a good selection from topics such as assistive technology, mental health, and transition to college.

What's New?

Here's hoping that everyone had a fun and safe 4th of July yesterday! I enjoyed my time off and saw some pretty awesome fireworks. Thank goodness for the rain beforehand! Now, before we go too much further into July, let's first take a look back at the new books that came into the library last month. We acquired books on topics such as dementia, inclusion, and social skills to name a few.
