OverviewA text about helping children and adolescents who engage in severe behaviors to positively succeed in the school setting. The emphasis is on the prevention of behavior problems through structuring the instructional environment and teaching appropriate skills and intervention to reduce problems with practical, proven, and positive procedures.

It is designed for teachers as well as those who work with teachers and students; school administrators, counselors, special educators, and school psychologists.
