The Brief Intervention for School Clinicians (BRISC) is a brief (four session) assessment, engagement, initial intervention, and triage strategy that aims to promote efficiency and structure in school mental health (SMH) service delivery, while also using treatment elements that are research-based.
Clinicians using the BRISC approach quickly assess the student's needs using a structured process and then engage the youth in problem solving around data-informed treatment goals. A selected number of treatment elements from cognitive-behavioral therapy and other research-based psychosocial interventions are used to ensure the student's success. Systematic progress monitoring guides clinical decisions within BRISC and selection of a post-BRISC treatment pathway for the student.
This BRISC e-learning is a 2 hour self-paced asynchronous web-based course that provides a basic orientation to the rationale for and treatment elements of BRISC in advance of (1) a live/synchronous session in which BRISC activities are modeled and practiced, and (2) consultation and fidelity assessment and feedback from BRISC experts.
Development of the Brief Intervention for School Clinicians (BRISC) and this e-Learning was supported by the Institute for Education Sciences, U.D. Department of Education, through Grant R305A160111 as well as the Northwest Mental Health Technology Transfer Center (MHTTC), funded by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).

Integrating Grief and Loss Conversations into the SBIRT Model
According to the Dougy Center: The National Center for Grieving Children and Families, individuals cope with losses in different ways; therefore, there is no right or wrong way to grieve. In adolescents and young adults, feelings of loss
and grief can develop from many things beyond a loved one's physical death, such as loss of developmental experiences or milestones. This 1.5 hour webinar will explore the various definitions and components of grief and loss and how
it can manifest in adolescents and young adults. Using the SBIRT model, participants will learn to identify warning signs and screen for complicated grief in adolescents and young adults, conduct a brief intervention, and link them
to appropriate resources for further treatment, including substance use and depression. The presenter will also outline protective and mitigating factors to help adolescents and young adults cope with grief and loss.
Learning Objectives:
Define the various components of grief and loss and how it affects adolescents and young adults from a physical, emotional, cognitive, behavioral, and spiritual perspective;
Explore ambiguous, stigmatized, traumatic losses, and anticipatory, disenfranchised, and complicated grief;
Recognize the importance of screening for loss with their adolescent and young adult clients; and
Identify ways to screen, conduct brief interventions, and refer high-risk individuals to appropriate services.

Research in Substance use and Addiction (AMERSA) to bring a series of virtual
events examining special topics for working with adolescents and transitional
age youth that relate to substance use and mental health conditions.
