The Brief Intervention for School Clinicians (BRISC) is a brief (four session) assessment, engagement, initial intervention, and triage strategy that aims to promote efficiency and structure in school mental health (SMH) service delivery,
while also using treatment elements that are research-based.
Clinicians using the BRISC approach quickly assess the student's needs using a structured process and then engage the youth in problem solving around data-informed treatment goals. A selected number of treatment elements from cognitive-behavioral
therapy and other research-based psychosocial interventions are used to ensure the student's success. Systematic progress monitoring guides clinical decisions within BRISC and selection of a post-BRISC treatment pathway for the student.
This BRISC e-learning is a 2 hour self-paced asynchronous web-based course that provides a basic orientation to the rationale for and treatment elements of BRISC in advance of (1) a live/synchronous session in which BRISC activities are modeled and practiced,
and (2) consultation and fidelity assessment and feedback from BRISC experts.
Development of the Brief
Intervention for School Clinicians (BRISC) and this e-Learning was supported by
the Institute for Education Sciences, U.D. Department of Education, through
Grant R305A160111 as well as the Northwest Mental Health Technology Transfer
Center (MHTTC), funded by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services
Administration (SAMHSA).

Cultivating Compassionate School Communities that Respond to Trauma Effectively
This 12 hour course offers recommendations to cultivate a compassionate school community that will buffer against the negative effects of trauma, build resilience for all students, and provide stress-relief and enhanced well-being for
teachers and other school personnel as well as students.
Participants will learn how to implement the Compassionate School Mental Health model being used to enhance services to schools and districts in the New England Mental Health Technology Transfer Center's Childhood Trauma-Learning Collaborative.
Learn about the neurobiology of trauma and toxic stress, how it affects staff and student well-being, and best practices for preventing, responding to, and alleviating the effects of trauma. Get guidance on developing a vision to transform
into a compassionate school community that includes the voices of many stakeholders. Gain understanding of how a compassionate school mental health support system can help schools create systems, policies, and protocols to prevent,
address, and recover from tragedies and crises including staff or student suicide, school violence, natural disasters, and global pandemics.
All of these activities, including case studies, will allow for knowledge application and prepare participants to consider implications for schoolwide implementation.
