What is California PBIS?

California PBIS is a collaborative organization using evidence-based, culturally relevant practices to build the capacity for all stakeholders in the implementation of PBIS as a multi-tiered system following the National PBIS Blueprints for professional development, implementation, and evaluation.

 Each year, California PBIS provides many opportunities to support the implementation of PBIS.  Please visit our events page for more information. 

California PBIS supports the sustainable development of a safe, equitable, and positive climate and social culture for ALL. 

 The purpose of California PBIS is to establish a network for state education leaders, county offices, school districts and schools implementing multi-tiered frameworks through Positive Behavioral Intervention and Supports (PBIS). It is our intention to create professional learning communities for those dedicated to effective PBIS/MTSS implementation. Within these learning communities, implementation leaders  will  access information and support leading to desired academic, behavior, and social-emotional outcomes for all California students, families and communities. California PBIS is dedicated to providing a standard of practice for PBIS through the work of technical assistance centers across the state as well as through the use of a statewide PBIS Recognition System. These centers are committed to supporting you in implementing PBIS in your area.

California PBIS Technical support is given by California PBIS Regional Technical Assistance Centers representing Southern, Central, and Northern California. These regional centers work in direct collaboration with partners from the Center on PBIS. Support for California PBIS comes from the Center on PBIS and from the collaborative commitment of the California PBIS Core Leadership Team.

The California PBIS Regional Technical Assistance Centers focus on the critical features of team training, coaching and district implementation teams by developing the internal capacity of organizations to support sustainable practices following the key evidence-based PBIS features and the use of PBIS Applications to monitor fidelity and behavior data for decision making.
