| Download presentation |
| Ronnie Detrich, The Wing Institute |
| Detrich provided an overview of the science of sustainability in the context of scientific goals: description, prediction, and control. He examined the difficulty of knowing what to measure and how to measure it, predicting the “sustainability” of programs, and the lack of research to date. He also reviewed the pre-summit survey answers regarding this topic. |

| Download presentation |
| Randy Keyworth, The Wing Institute |
| Keyworth introduced the topic by setting a societal “context” for the recent work on implementation and sustainability. He reviewed a series of recent initiatives that have made significant progress in facilitating research to practice in the real world in real time. Finally, he introduced the speakers and highlighted their meaningful accomplishments. |

| Dean Fixsen, Ph.D, National Implementation Research Network |
| Fixsen discussed common elements of successfully sustaining effective practices across a variety of disciplines. With the growth of the evidence-based practice (EBP) movement three issues have surfaced: 1) how to implement EBPs with fidelity; 2) how to implement EBPs on a scale to produce societal impact; and 3) how to sustain scaled up programs to assure long term benefits. |

| 10:20 | Work Group: Implementation |
| |
The work groups reviewed actual meeting notes from an organization engaged in implementing RtI in a school district. The group was asked to identify implementation drivers, stages, and problem solve solutions to the obstacles presented in the notes. |

| Bruce Chorpita, Ph.D, University of Hawaii |
| Chorpita provided an overview of the considerations when introducing evidence-based services into established mental health systems, including: 1) strategies for the measurement and feedback of child outcomes to guide clinical decisions and 2) strategies for pulling clinically useful information from the published clinical research trials. Examples of clinical and feedback strategies highlighted the concept of a “clinical dashboard,” which is a visual summary of complex client-specific information to guide the clinician. |

| 12:50 | Work Group: Clinical Model Processing |
| |
| The work groups reconvened with the assignment of doing an analysis of a clinical/educational process from their real-life experiences. The groups mapped out the major decisions, information they used to inform the decision (e.g., scientific journals, local policy, clinical judgment, history, other sources of evidence, peer pressure, outside contingencies), outcomes, and resulting decision points. The groups considered (1) the actual (what happens in your organization), (2) the typical (what happens in your field typically), and (3) the ideal elements (how it should happen under ideal circumstances). |

| Download presentation |
| George Sugai, Ph.D, Neag New School of Education |
| Sugai provided an overview of "lessons learned" from efforts to sustain and scale-up a school-wide continuum of evidence-based behavioral practices and systems in schools. Two major questions were addressed: 1) Why have traditional system change approaches struggled to improve the social and behavioral outcomes and climate of schools? 2) What have we learned about impediments and facilitators of accurate, sustainable, and scalable implementation of school-wide positive behavior supports? |

| 2:50 | Work Group: Sustainability Questions |
The work groups reconvened with the assignment of generating questions for the speaker panel. |
