School Attendance Improvement Program

The goal of this program is to improve school attendance and thereby reduce the number of days students are absent from school. Secondary goals are to reduce the number of truancy-related referrals to county offices and to reduce the amount of time school districts expend on truancy-related issues. Using a blend of prevention and intervention, the School Attendance Improvement Program provides case management, collaboration with the school district, and coordination of services with both community providers and the District Judges.
