09/12/2022 - 09/13/2022The University of Texas System recognized the need for behavior intervention teams to collaborate on best practices for managing personal and campus safety concerns. In 2019, campus leaders began meeting on a regular basis to share resources and create a community of experts. One major focus has been the need for ongoing training for those who serve on these committees.
