Statewide Leadership Team
Purpose

The Illinois PBIS Statewide Leadership Team was estabilshed in February 2005 to guide the design and implementation of a long-range plan for PBIS in Illinois. The goal is to ensure that all Illinois schools in need of PBIS have access to the training, technical assistance, and evaluation support required for success. Team members include leaders of educational and child-serving agencies, i.e. mental health, juvenile justice and child welfare, as well as political leaders and advocacy groups.

  
Focus & Planning

Work groups have been developing specific actions for priority areas of focus building on ideas generated at previous meetings. These areas include:

  • Demonstrations: Criteria to guide a process for political units to formally recognize schools and districts who succeed with PBIS (i.e., Active, Fully Implementing, Exemplar, Self-Sustaining) is underway.
  • Educational Environment
  • Political Support: Strategies for informing state legislators about accomplished PBIS schools in their areas have been developed.  Click here for more information on how these strategies have been implemented.
     
  • Visibility: Southern Illinois University professors and students have assistaed in the development of a marketing plan to generate a broader awareness for the initiative.

  • Related Initiatives

  • School/Family/Community Partnerships

  • Tertiary Demonstrations Interagency
Meetings over the past year have resulted in the initiation of an action-oriented strategic planning process.
