RTI: An Intervention-Based Approach to Delivering Services to Students At-Risk for Emotional and Behavioral Disorders. Almost 20% of school-age students could qualify for a mental health diagnosis, however less than 1% of these students are served in schools as emotionally disturbed. Students with these emotional and behavioral challenges are therefore either unserved or underserved in American schools. Most of these children experience a number of difficulties in the development and maintenance of satisfactory interpersonal relationships with peers and teachers.

Issues of screening, assessment, and program evaluation are discussed.
