Response to Intervention (RTI) Group G- Erin Curtis, Carly Gall, and Robyn Smith A workshop on Response to Intervention (RTI) will be held to inform school counselors of their role in the intervention process. American School Counseling Association advocates for school counselor involvement in the RTI process, yet many are unaware. This presentation is intended to inform and inspire new school counselors to advocate for their professional role in RTI and ultimately student success. Marketing plans needed for this workshop include an informative flyer that will be administered to counselors and administrators throughout the county. Refreshments and light snacks will be offered at the workshop. Preparation will also include an email approval request sent to local administrators asking for permission to attend. Materials needed to conduct this workshop include computer, Prezi, copies of ASCA RTI position statement, snacks and refreshments, paper, and pencil.
