Learning supports can include a host of classroom approaches, school-wide programs, family and community partnerships, and youth leadership opportunities. Together these areas form a structure for organizing, understanding, and selecting research-based interventions intended to address the needs of students. The six content areas from the Iowa Design for Learning Supports include:
Family Supports and Involvement
Safe, Healthy, and Caring Environments
Transitions
Child/Youth Engagement
