This project is designed to increase access to behavioral healthcare for underserved populations in the Tampa Bay area of Florida by increasing numbers of counselors, marriage and family therapists, psychologists, and social workers trained to provide integrated behavioral health (IBH) services in primary care medical practices. The interdisciplinary 鈥淚ntegrated Behavioral Health Training Collaborative鈥� has been formed from graduate programs in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling, Psychology (School and Clinical), Social Work, and Pediatric Psychology in the Colleges of Behavioral and Community Sciences and Medicine. These training programs, over several years, have individually offered an uncoordinated variety of IBH courses, experiential placements (advanced practicums), and internships in a limited number of primary care medical practices. It is projected that by the end of the project, 72 trainees from Mental Health Counseling and Social Work, 12 Psychology doctoral graduate students and 16 Psychology interns will be trained to enter behavioral health practice in primary care settings.

Project iSED provides training, coursework, mentorship, and fieldwork experience to students in the masters program in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and Social Work (SW). Through various experiences students selected for the project (i.e., scholars) gain the skills necessary to work, following graduation, in school settings, serving school-aged children who engage in challenging behavior. During their time enrolled in Project iSED, scholars gain additional knowledge in school-based interventions and learn to collaborate with other professionals in designing interventions for the children they serve.

The project aims to address the social, emotional, behavioral, and mental health needs of children and youth by increasing the number of school-based behavior analysts who are prepared to provide integrated behavioral and mental health services in high-need schools and ensuring
that all service providers are trained in inclusive practices, including ensuring access to services for children and youth who are English learners. The project will focus on the needs of graduate program students from diverse backgrounds and utilizing the program鈥檚 broad allowability
to use funds to provide support services that will have a meaningful impact on diversifying the school-based mental health services workforce. Funds will be used to pay for participating graduate students鈥� tuition and stipends, which is critical in supporting students pursuing careers as schoolbased behavioral and mental health services providers, especially students from low-income backgrounds.

This project promotes recruitment, training, and development of highly qualified rehabilitation counselors to meet the high demand for public sector providers of Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) services.
