We Create Safer Schools, Districts, Campuses, and Workplaces

Does your school, district, or campus recognize the need for a behavioral intervention team to promote student safety and well-being but lack a clear pathway to forming, fine-tuning, or training that team? BIT and CARE teams are not just reactive measures to prevent school violence, but they are also proactive ways to address the growing need for centralized care and support for at-risk individuals. NABITA offers consulting services to all institutions. Contact us if you’re looking for a tailored training solution that suits your requirements.
