Englewood STEM Behavioral Health Care

What is the Behavioral Health Team?

The BHT's primary function is to create a comprehensive system of support, not just to handle crises. Their goals include:

Prevention (Tier 1): Implementing school-wide programs to promote positive mental health, social-emotional learning, and a supportive school climate for all students.
Early Intervention (Tier 2): Providing targeted support to students who are at risk (e.g., small group counseling for stress or coping skills, check-in/check-out programs).
Intensive Services (Tier 3): Delivering individualized interventions for students with the highest needs, which may include one-on-one therapy, safety planning, and coordinating care with outside community providers.
Data-Driven Decision-Making: Regularly analyzing data (attendance, discipline referrals, grades, and screening results) to identify trends and evaluate the effectiveness of their interventions.
