Today’s learners face diverse challenges and stressors. From mental health, to drug use, to bullying and managing social conflicts, Ripple Effects’ personalized digital programs provide students – and the adults who work with them – targeted skill training across MTSS.
Ripple Effects for Teens is a CASEL-designated program that meets or exceeds their criteria for high quality programming.
Universal
Ripple Effects programs personalize universal social-emotional skill training and character education to support academic growth.
Prevention
Our programs reinforce the MTSS framework, using data to design targeted scope and sequence lesson sets. Areas of focus include prevention and specific behavior concerns.
Intervention
Ripple Effects is a complementary component to a student’s IEP (individualized education plan) and is also an effective alternative to ISS (in school suspension), resulting in a reduction of disproportionate referrals.
Behavioral Support and Restorative Settings
Our programs support youth across behavioral health and juvenile justice settings by strengthening the skills and protective factors they need to succeed.
Mental Health
In US schools, one out of every five students struggles with a mental health condition, like anxiety or depression.
Ripple Effects programs have been shown to improve depression scores, resiliency assets and to help youth manage stressors.
While not intended as a primary prescribed mental health treatment, the programs provide contextualized, culturally sensitive, trauma-informed, skill-building and behavioral training.
