iSocial Update
Looking for ideas to get the word out about Pyramid Model?
This iSocial Communications Guide is designed to help programs do just that! Look inside to find:
  • Ideas to share program specific information about PM
  • A simple to use Cut, Copy, & Paste section to promote Social/Emotional development, address challenging behavior, and invite two-way conversation and engagement ideas
  • Links to additional resources and materials to print out and/or order and share with families 
Whether your program uses newsletters, daily notes, social media platforms, text, or a communication app., this guide can take your family engagement to the next level.
Program-Wide Expectations are front and center in NCPMI’s Benchmark of Quality (BOQ). Best practice compels us to gather family input into the development of Program-Wide Expectations. If your program is in the process of developing or updating Program-Wide Expectations, use the attached flyer to invite families to share what behaviors are valued and considered most important at home and in the community.
