HELM Project

Helping Educational Leaders Mobilize Evidence

The purpose of this project was to develop and test an organization-focused implementation intervention, called Helping Educational Leaders Mobilize Evidence (HELM). HELM aims to improve elementary school principals’ use of strategic implementation leadership to support the adoption and high-fidelity use of Tier 1/universal social emotional and behavioral programs and practices that improve student outcomes.

This project has been completed and published. Our current work involves testing the efficacy of HELM.

Learn about our work to iteratively develop and test HELM with these resources:

1. Helping Educational Leaders Mobilize Evidence (HELM): The iterative redesign of the Leadership and Organizational Change for Implementation (LOCI) intervention for use in schools

2. Centering School Leaders’ Expertise: Usability Evaluation of a Leadership-Focused Implementation Strategy to Support Tier 1 Programs in Schools

3. Not getting better but not getting worse: A cluster randomized controlled pilot trial of a leadership implementation strategy
