| PEP Assist
PEP Assist is a consulting
and training service provided to schools and programs designed
to teach best practices for working with at-risk children. Services
are individually tailored to meet the unique needs of each district.
Working in partnership with public schools, PEP staff develops
innovative programs and staff development opportunities so that
children with severe and challenging behaviors may be served successfully
in their school of residence.
Services Offered
- Individualized Student Consultation - PEP Assist will
observe a student and provide a functional behavior assessment.
This assessment is translated into recommendations and incorporated
into a behavior intervention plan that includes how positive behavior
supports can be developed to maintain the child in the least restrictive
environment possible. To support plan implementation, PEP Assist
staff are available to work directly with the teacher and the
parents.
- Program Development - PEP Assist staff will collaborate
with district personnel to design and implement model services
provided in the district to children with behavioral needs. From
inclusion strategies to specific methodology, staff can support
developing programs across the spectrum of needs.
- Workshops, Trainings and Conferences - PEP Assist consultants
and trainers with wide-ranging expertise in working with troubled
students are available to design workshops and on-site trainings
to suit the specific needs of each environment. Annually, PEP
Assist hosts the week-long PEP Summer
Institute devoted
to topics essential to designing effective, evidence-based programs
for students experiencing serious emotional and behavioral challenges.
Hours: Office Hours are Monday – Friday,
8:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. Trainings and other services can be
