Happy Student: the Practical Guide to Functional Behavior Assessment and Behavior Intervention Planning is a tool for educators to better understand what some believe is a complicated process.

The book is intended to help teachers and school staff to implement a functional assessment and intervention planning process to increase the quality of life and happiness for students that may exhibit challenging behaviors.
