Helping schools address barriers to learning and create safer learning environments.
Contact Community Services provides training and support to school and school district personnel to address barriers to learning. We also offer direct services to students, including an after-school program at Shea Middle School and a workshop teaching social/emotional skills.
TRAINING AND SUPPORT PROGRAMS
-
Contact’s Central New York Social Emotional Learning Institute (CNY SEL Institute) includes trainings in Student Targeted Aggression Replacement Training; Functional Behavioral Assessment/Behavioral Intervention Planning; and Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS). Social emotional learning (SEL) is a process for helping children-and adults-develop the fundamental skills for life effectiveness. These skills have a profound influence on academic—and—lifelong-success.
- Primary Project (formerly Primary Mental Health Project)
The Primary Project is a research-based, early intervention program designed to
- Help young students improve school adjustment and learning
- Become more emotionally resilient
- Develop better social skills
- Success Through Early Prevention (STEP)
Success Through Early Prevention (STEP) is an alternative education program for third through sixth graders whose behavior significantly interferes with classroom instruction.
- Crisis Response and School Violence Prevention Network
Throughout the school year, Contact sponsors regular meetings on topics related to crisis response and school violence prevention.
