PBIS, School Mental Health, and Supporting Students with Trauma: Session 78 with Barry McCurdy

Dr. Barry McCurdy is the Director of the Devereux's Center for Effective Schools. In this episode, we talk about his work in supporting students with significant behavioral challenges in urban public school settings.

Barry's primary research interest in the treatment of disruptive behavior disorders has led to several prevention/early intervention initiatives in urban schools including the development of models for school-wide positive behavior support, school-based parent training, and classroom-based behavior management.

During this interview, we referred to a variety of people, resources, studies, and so on. I have attempted to capture links to all of them here:
