Summary

School psychologists often need to coordinate student support services with nonschool providers to fully address nonacademic (e.g., physical health) areas of concern, to enhance student functioning in a comprehensive and consistent fashion, and to share data regarding school performance and inform evaluation and modification of community support services. This chapter provides an overview of current knowledge and best practice guidelines for communicating and coordinating services with nonschool providers. We describe theoretical models (e.g., social-ecological) that can guide practice, and discuss service coordination in the context of a multitiered system of support. A continuum of care is proposed, including collaborative implementation of prevention services (e.g., screening, health education), and the use of conjoint behavior consultation to deliver targeted and individualized interventions in collaboration with nonschool providers. The chapter concludes with a discussion of possible barriers to service coordination and recommendations for addressing these barriers.
