Part of the Unpacking Coaching webinar series, this webinar provides an overview of practice-based coaching (PBC) and how it can be used to support implementation of the Pyramid Model practices. Practice-Based Coaching is briefly introduced and then three panelists who have been involved in coaching related to the Pyramid Model share their experiences.
The Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Consultation (IECMHC) learning module highlights the role of the IECMHC. The interactive module is divided into lessons with realistic scenarios and short video clips. Each lesson has its own resource area designed to provide extensive support around IECMHC. Revisit it as needed to gain a better understanding of your role as a Head Start IECMHC.
Programs can share this handout with families to inform them of their Pyramid Model implementation efforts.
The Statewide Implementation Guide is an important resource for the use of this approach. The guide is based on results and evidence from the multi-year Pyramid Model implementation initiative in 25 states. It includes tools, materials, and examples derived from the Pyramid Model and ECTA’s DEC Recommended Practices implementation technical assistance (Smith et al., 2017).
