Crisis Prevention Institute Case Study

Sauk Rapids School District – Minnesota

Introduction

This case study of Sauk Rapids School District is based on a June 2016 survey of Crisis Prevention Institute customers by TechValidate, a 3rd-party research service.

“CPI is a comprehensive program that integrates both verbal and physical de-escalation skills. It is easily taught to all staff.”

“CPI improved staff de-escalation skills, improved overall safety, and has become ingrained in our training.”

“Using CPI training has led to improved student outcomes, because of an increase in direct instruction time. (For instance, test scores, student grades, graduation rates, etc.)”

“After implementing CPI training, our staff feels more confident and safe when dealing with a dis-regulated student. I’ve seen the most change in our paraprofessionals and sped staff.”
