    trauma and mental health needs of students in the pk-12 school setting. This development plan will include an initial
    assessment of the current levels, or lack thereof, each tier and the following elements found in each tier of an MTSS
    model:

    ▪ School wide supports for all students
    ▪ Staff Development needed
    ▪ Implementation
    ▪ Describe how these universal supports will create a safe and supportive Environment for all
    students

    ▪ Referral process
    ▪ Assessment used to determine student needs
    ▪ Plan for Providing Support (logistics: who, what, where, when)
    ▪ Build Social-Emotional Learning for “At-Risk” Students (e.g., the “how”)

    ● Policies and procedures that may need to be in place for the MTSS to be effective
    ● Detailed model of the MTSS must be included in the write up (using the traditional pyramid format of an MTSS)
    Each candidate will write a paper describing each tier and the specific supports needed. Research for each tier must
    be included using peer review journal articles, evidence-based curriculum, or any other scholarly reviewed materials.
    This paper should be 6-8 pages in length and must be written in APA 7

  • “Reflecting on Peer Helping: Integrating Skills, Understanding Identities, and Applying Theories”

    Students will be required to complete a final integrative paper (6-10 pages) based on their experiences in the two in-person helping sessions with their helpee this semester. This paper should assess your unique understanding, integration, and application of peer helping skills. Components of the final paper are included below and should be identified by headings:
    Case Write-Up (1-2 pages): Write a brief “case summary” section based on your two helping sessions as the helper. Outline and summarize your helpee’s presenting concerns, the helpee’s personal strengths, and the course of helping (i.e., what skills you used and why, compare/contrast specific skills used in the first versus second sessions, etc.). Students may include basic demographic information (e.g., age, gender identity, race/ethnicity) but must avoid significant identifiable information about the helpee (e.g., name, address).  
    Strengths and Growth Edges (1-2 pages): Discuss your strengths and areas for growth in using helping skills this semester, including specific examples of skills you used well, skills that were challenging for you, and helpee’s reactions. Be sure to include quotes from your helping session recordings as an example of the skills you discuss and refer to the data from your SPOMs.
    Cultural Awareness (1-2 pages): Reflect on the ways in which your social identities, personality, and/or family background/upbringing influence your style of helping or your particular experience in the helping process. What power dynamics could have been present in the room and how did you/could you have mitigated them? 
    Theory (2-3 pages): Include a) an outline of one of the three overarching theories covered in class (or an alternative theory approved by your instructor) and b) how you see this theory helping the helpee.  Be sure to discuss strengths and limitations of your chosen theory and how you would apply this theory if you were to engage in a long-term helping relationship with your helpee. 
    Personal and/or Professional Application (1 page): Consider how you anticipate using helping skills in a chosen professional field of study and/or your interpersonal relationships.
    it is ok to make up information regarding the personal aspects of the paper.
