School-based interventions.

This article provides an update on evidence-based practices and interventions in school settings, with a specific focus on prevention and intervention programs that can be delivered within a three-tiered intervention framework. First, the sources of evidence-based intervention programs including clinical and school psychology task forces, the National Reading Panel, the What Works Clearinghouse, and several other organizations/groups are reviewed. Second, the three-tiered prevention framework (including universal, selected, and indicated programs) and various challenges surrounding their implementation (ie, screening, progress monitoring, professional development, and sustainability) are reviewed.
