This document is designed to provide guidance to Illinois school administrators on positive behavioral interventions with students with disabilities. It begins with a description of the Illinois statute addressing behavioral interventions and then provides information on district policy guidelines on establishing and maintaining a committee to develop policies and procedures for students with disabilities who require behavioral interventions. The statute requires that the policies and procedures include the following components: (1) emphasis on positive interventions; (2) procedures and methods consistent with generally accepted practice in the field of behavioral interventions; (3) criteria for determining when a students with disabilities requires a behavioral intervention plan; (4) procedures for developing a behavioral intervention plan and its inclusion in the Individualized Education Program; (5) procedures for monitoring the use of restrictive behavioral interventions; (6) provision for staff training and professional development; and (7) provisions for parent involvement and assurance of due process rights including parent notification and the right to appeal. The document provides a detailed description of these components in separate sections. Appendices include Illinois statutes, sample forms, position statements from advocacy/professional groups, a glossary of selected terms, a list of selected readings, and a list of the members of the Behavioral Interventions Taskforce.
