ON-DEMAND WEBINAR

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

Nav360-K12-PWBN-042226-Warning Signs Were There-1080x1080

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.

In this on-demand webinar, Curtis Herring, Dr. Joe McKenna, and Thom Jones utilize their personal experience working in and with schools 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

This webinar also explores how progress monitoring can serve as both a prevention strategy and a stand-alone intervention.

Be Proactive in Protecting Your School Community

Earlier this year, Alabama introduced legislation requiring schools to provide school employees training for and access to a mobile emergency rapid response system. The bill, HB234, requires employees to have a device that links directly to law enforcement to speed the response time in an emergency. If passed, the law becomes effective October 1, 2025, and stipulates compliance by October 1, 2030.

The law is modeled after Alyssa’s Law, already enacted in other states. Alyssa’s Law is named for 14-year-old Alyssa Alhadeff, a victim in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School massacre.

Watch Now!

Schools are not powerless against youth violence, but they are vulnerable without systems that connect information and guide response. Watch to learn how structured case management helps teams capture the data, connect the dots, and intervene before behaviors escalate.
