This timely text provides essential content on group practices, solution-focused counseling, and proven strategies for implementation of groups in schools.

The SOS Model provides group session plans and interactive group activities to meet all of the ASCA National Standards for Personal/Social Development.  This practical "how to" book includes all of the ready-to-use tools to set up, run, and evaluate groups--needs assessments, letters to parents and teachers, solution-focused interview guides, 54 session guides and handouts, and evaluations.
