Mental Health

The Behavior Intervention Specialist (BIS) is responsible for providing positive behavioral support to K-12 students as well as engaging students in a planning process to build on existing strengths, teach effective coping skills and productive behaviors. This mentor both advocates for and challenges the students to be productive and restorative while using a strength-based, trauma informed approach. The BIS also partners with family, school, and community to teach the students to be respectful, responsible, safe and ready to learn. The BIS role calls for a flexible, collaborative, and eager-to-learn professional.
