What is the Multi-Tiered System of Support for Behavioral Health (MTSS-B) Framework?

Students distracted by distressing emotions are less available for listening, watching, absorbing, and retaining information. Without appropriate supports, students are at risk for more severe behavioral health difficulties. Schools are a hub for behavioral health services for students and families, and research shows that students are 6x more likely to complete evidence-based interventions in schools versus other community settings (See the NH MTSS-B Technical Assistance Center's Supporting Literature).

MTSS-B stops the cycle of competing, detracting, and duplicative initiatives, builds capacity through alignment with community partners, and measures school and student outcomes through ongoing evaluation of data.

The Manchester School District prioritizes establishing trauma-informed schools and building student resilience through the MTSS-B Framework
