Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is a proactive, schoolwide framework that helps create safe, supportive, and positive learning environments where every student can succeed.

Rather than being a specific curriculum or program, PBIS is an evidence-based approach that provides schools with strategies to promote positive behavior, strengthen relationships between students and staff, and support both academic and social-emotional success. By providing different levels of support based on student needs, PBIS helps ensure every student has the opportunity to thrive.

California PBIS works with schools across the state to implement these research-based practices and build positive school cultures that support all students.
