The 2008 edition of the implementation manual for Check & Connect, the comprehensive, targeted intervention designed to enhance students' engagement at school and with learning through relationship building and problem solving. One of 22 dropout prevention interventions rated by the U.S. Department of Education's What Works Clearinghouse, Check & Connect is the only program found to have strong evidence of positive effects for staying in school. The new manual, which expands and updates the original 1995 manual, outlines the key components of Check & Connect, describes the steps to implement this research-based model, and presents the theory underlying the intervention. School districts and youth organizations desiring assistance in implementing the intervention can participate in Check & Connect training, either at their sites (for customized training) or at sites throughout the country.
