Abstract
The high prevalence of student behavioral and mental health challenges points to schools as a critical context for prevention and service delivery (Hoagwood et al., 2007). There is a growing recognition of the importance of teachers in the implementation of school-based programs that benefit the social-emotional and behavioral outcomes of students. Despite the growing evidence base for the efficacy of preventive interventions (for reviews, see Durlak, Weissberg, Dymnicki, Taylor, & Schellinger, 2011; Hoagwood & Burns, 2005; O’Connell, Boat, & Warner, 2009; Wilson & Lipsey, 2007), the implementation of these interventions is often lacking (Gottfredson, Jones, & Gore, 2002) and likely requires ongoing, interactive professional development that allows teachers to reflect on their practice and provides support to teachers to them for high-quality implementation (Darling-Hammond, 2009).
