Area of Science:

  • Behavioral Science
  • Disability Services
  • Public Health Policy

Background:

  • Positive Behavior Support (PBS) has evolved from applied behavior analysis.
  • Significant challenges exist in translating research into effective statewide implementation.
  • State agencies require structured models for systemic change in disability services.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the development process and model for statewide system change in PBS.
  • To outline the implementation strategies used by a state agency and university collaboration.
  • To identify key components for successful systemic transformation in disability support.

Main Methods:

  • Described the development of a statewide system change model for PBS.
  • Detailed the collaborative process between a state agency and a university center.

  • Outlined implementation strategies including capacity building, training, and policy adjustments.

    • Main Results:

    • A comprehensive model for statewide PBS system change was developed and is being implemented.
    • Key areas of focus included training, state regulations, waiver changes, and technical assistance.
    • The collaboration facilitated the transition from literature to practical, large-scale application.

    Conclusions:

    • Statewide system change in PBS requires a structured, collaborative approach.
    • Effective implementation involves capacity building, targeted training, regulatory alignment, and ongoing technical support.
    • This model provides a framework for other agencies seeking to implement PBS on a large scale.
