Interconnected Systems Framework

The Interconnected Systems Framework (ISF) is a collaborative approach that streamlines school mental health and wellness efforts by integrating social, emotional, and behavioral (SEB) supports within a single, coordinated system. By connecting education, mental health, and community partners, ISF reduces barriers created by traditionally separate systems and promotes more effective, equitable, and sustainable support for students, families, and schools.
