Strategies for Improving Implementation of Effective Practices Through Peer Engagement

This “View From the Field” column is part of a series highlighting the important roles stakeholders, peers, families, community members, and school staff have in supporting the implementation of effective practices (i.e., evidence-based, research-based) for students with or at risk for disabilities. We describe how different stakeholders can successfully partner with school intervention teams to improve social-behavior, academic, and transition outcomes. We also offer strategies for how schools can develop and sustain partnerships with these stakeholders.
