Tier 1 or Universal SW-PBS is comprised of Seven Essential Components which are individually research based. When the Seven Essential Components are used collectively the process is termed Tier 1 SW-PBS, which is also a research based intervention. The Seven Essential Components are applicable to classroom as well as non-classroom settings throughout all school buildings. Embedded within the Seven Essential Components are culturally responsive practices and family and community involvement.
