A Multidisciplinary, Team-Based Approach to Behavioral Health

June 2021 | Beyond SEL at WestEd and Seaford Public School District

This 16-minute audiocast from Beyond SEL at WestEd shares one school district’s approach to creating and implementing an effective school behavioral health system that offers services for the entire school community as well as increasingly intensive supports for students. This recording, along with an accompanying brief and implementation guide, provides an overview of how the Seaford Public School District (Seaford, DE) engaged community-based organizations as partners in developing a systematic approach to addressing behavioral health. By engaging families and the community, school staff can learn to identify root causes of behavioral challenges and determine strategies for support.
