Chronic absenteeism can lead to immediate and long-term problems such as low academic achievement, delinquency, substance abuse, and family dysfunction later in life. "Absenteeism and Truancy: Interventions and Universal Procedures" will help you implement schoolwide procedures to minimize absenteeism and truancy. This comprehensive guide takes a multi-tiered approach to addressing absenteeism and truancy. In addition to schoolwide procedures to minimize absenteeism and truancy, "Absenteeism & Truancy: Interventions and Universal Procedures" outlines 25 research-based interventions for use with individual students, small groups, and classes. These interventions address common functions that motivate students to miss school: (1) Anger Management Training; (2) Behavior Contracting; (3) Bullying; (4) Check In/Check Out (CICO); (5) Classroom Consultation; (6) Cognitive Behavior Therapy to Reduce Anxiety; (7) Cross-Age Peer Tutoring; (8) Establishing Classroom Expectations and Defining Limits; (9) Group Contingency; (10) Home Notes; (11) Increased Supervision/Structure; (12) Meaningful Work; (13) Mentoring; (14) Parent Training Type 1; (15) Parent Training Type 2; (16) Practice for Proficiency; (17) Precision Requests; (18) Principal's 200 Club; (19) Problem Solving; (20) Repeated Reading Tutorial; (21) Response Cost; (22) Self-Management Skills; (23) Social Skills Training; (24) Structured Reinforcement Systems; and (25) Substance Abuse. The interventions can be used by themselves or in conjunction with "Functional Behavior Assessment of Absenteeism and Truancy."
