Current Projects

The SPIRSS project includes partnerships between the WSU School Psychology Program and three rural school districts in Kansas. This project, funded by the U.S. Department of Education, provides the partnering districts with access to essential school-based social, emotional, behavioral, and educational assessment services that are currently not readily available. This project was developed to support the identified need for school based mental health services in rural districts. Furthermore, the SPIRSS project develops applied learning opportunities for School Psychology graduate students during their field experience.

CPRF and ARISE Research Collaborative researchers have developed an applied research partnership focused on interactive development through on going evaluation of the Guided Independent Living Assessment (GILA) Program. Specifically, the project objectives are focused on determining how to create the program in a way that best prepares individuals with disabilities to understand what it takes to live independently.
