Kansas Institute for Positive Behavior Support
The Kansas Institute for Positive Behavior Support (KIPBS) at
the University of Kansas was established November, 2001 in
collaboration with the Kansas Department of Social and
Rehabilitation Services (SRS) to create statewide training for PBS
and PCP. This system will allow professionals in the fields of
developmental disabilities, mental health, and child welfare to
bill Medicaid for PBS and PCP services. In Year One, training was
limited to professionals in developmental disabilities. In Year
Two, professionals in child welfare were added. Professionals in
mental health will be invited to apply in future years. All Kansas
agencies will be able to obtain access to online instructional
materials that can be embedded within their own ongoing in-service
training efforts.
