Teaming with schools and parents, CSF teachers, counselors and assistants teach students the skills needed to achieve academic and social success. 

CSF began in the 2000-01 school year. Initially funded by a federal grant from the U.S. Department of Safe and Drug Free Schools, it is now an established Tier II intervention program supporting ASD's Response to Instruction (RTI) goals.

has been building to suggest that there
is a strong link between young
children’s social-emotional competence and
their chances of early school success.”
