The Pyramid Model
The Pyramid Model is an evidence-based framework that promotes healthy social and emotional development as a way to address challenging behavior. this model is a tiered approach built on the foundation of an effective workforce that provides universal supportive environments and nurturing relationships to all children. The secondary tier focuses on targeted social-emotional teaching to children who need additional support in developing social-emotional skills. The top tier targets those children whose needs have not been met through the previous tiers and need additional support through individualized interventions.The following training topics are available upon request:
