From Everyday Concerns to Complex Cases: Bringing Structure to Behavioral Case Management

Although Schools around the country have Behavioral Threat Assessment teams, most schools lack a consistent, scalable system for managing student behavior on the backend of this process. Without consistency and structure, determining the right interventions, monitoring progress, and deciding how long to provide support is challenging.

The data highlights the challenge: across more than 24,000 cases in Behavioral Case Manager, 85% were low-level concerns. While these should be the easiest to manage, without clear processes they’re often handled inconsistently— increasing the risk of escalation into the 15% of cases that require intensive, coordinated support.

Join subject matter experts, Curtis Herring, Dr. Joe McKenna, and Thom Jones on April 22 at 2 PM (ET), as they utilize their personal experience working in and with school to guide a practical discussion on how to move beyond assessment to structured case management—so interventions are coordinated, progress is tracked in an objective manner, and prevention becomes operational.

In this session, you’ll learn how to:

• Identify priority concerns from an assessment to guide case management
• Build and implement customized management plans
• Monitor progress and adjust supports effectively
• Determine appropriate duration and close cases responsibly

Plus, we’ll explore how progress monitoring can serve as both a prevention strategy and a stand-alone intervention, followed by live Q&A.
