Sustainably implementing an evidence-based approach requires more than just training. It requires changing the structure, culture, and behavior of an entire organization and its staff. While this can be challenging, we are here to help at every step.

Think:Kids has spent nearly two decades helping organizations of all shapes and sizes learn and sustainably implement CPS. Backed by implementation science, our Partnership Program is the most comprehensive and effective way to build a solid foundation in Collaborative Problem Solving and foster ongoing adoption within your organization.

We follow implementation science best practices through a phased approach, providing state-of-the-art readiness evaluations, intensive training, coaching, and project management support. Our research staff continuously evaluates the fidelity and outcomes of the implementation, and we use those data to guide our work together. Our train-the-trainer model develops a team of experts on your staff certified in Collaborative Problem Solving, giving you the capacity to support your training and coaching needs in the future. Lastly, at Think:Kids, we practice what we preach, and we collaborate with you to solve the inevitable problems that arise during the process, working hard to make sure the unique concerns of your organization are addressed.

As your organization moves through the phases of implementation toward Achieving Independence, your team members become more involved in training and coaching staff and Think:Kids moves to more of an advisory role.
