Current SAP Trainings
SAP (Student Assistance Program) and ESAP (Elementary Student Assistance Program) trainings are certification trainings that assist school personnel in identifying students who are experiencing barriers to learning due to drug and alcohol, mental health or behavioral concerns. The Pennsylvania Commonwealth model is a nationally-recognized program that is based upon referral, team planning, intervention, recommendations and follow-up. Participants will gain knowledge and skills necessary to work on a SAP or ESAP team.
