SESAME (Schoolwide Positive Behavior Support for Mental Health) is a three-tiered system of support designed to create a safe learning environment for the whole school, in order to prevent the development of internalizing psychosocial disorders in students. SESAME is characterized in particular by the fact that evidence-based methods for assessment and intervention at different support tiers are linked together. The intensity of assessment and intervention depends on the needs of the students.
This project was financed by European Union and had collaboration from teams from 5 different countries: Portugal, Germany, England, Italy, and France.
