On this episode of Meeting Midway we discuss the Targeted System of Support Evaluation Tool (TSSET) with Nicole Jones. The purpose of this tool is to measure the implementation of Tier 2 and Tier 3 efforts among supported individuals within an organization. The tool itself, when administer, highlights consistent Tier 2 and Tier 3 efforts while also addressing gaps that need to be strengthened or areas that need to be implemented. At this time Missouri is the only state using the TSSET and is leading the rest of the nation in this approach however collaboration and connections are being made across the USA and internationally as well.

EP 18. TSSET May 2024

On this episode of Meeting Midway we're talking with Bob Putnam, Chelsea Salvatore and Emily Baton from the May Institute about their most recent presentation at the 2024 Association for Positive Behavior Supports conference. The title of their presentation was "Beyond Data Collection: Using Data to Make a Difference in IDD Settings". Our discussion centers around their presentation and the fidelity tools they reviewed and discussed. Two tool mentioned in their presentation were the Agency Systems Support Evaluation Tool aka ASSET with Missouri and the Tiered Onsite Evaluation Tool aka TOET with Minnesota. Our discussion then leads into a third fidelity tool the May Institute in Massachusetts is developing. From here we discuss several other tools and resources that listeners might find helpful in addition to goals and dreams for Bob, Chelsea and Emily on where they would like to see these tools in the future.
