RP in schools — Working with schools on a building-wide basis to improve school culture, decrease disruptive behavior and conflict and help students take responsibility for their behavior and academic performance.
RP in child and family welfare — Working with social workers, treatment providers and others to improve family engagement and help young people make positive changes in their behavior.
