3-C Family Services and our sister company, 3-C Institute for Social Development, are pleased to announce that Social Skills Group Intervention  (S.S.GRIN) has been recognized by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) for the quality of its  scientific base and ease of implementation. After a comprehensive  review of the quality of the research supporting intervention outcomes  and the quality and availability of training and implementation  materials, S.S.GRIN 3-5 has been added to SAMHSA’s National Registry of  Evidence-based Programs and Practices (NREPP). NREPP is a searchable  online registry of mental health and substance abuse interventions that  have been reviewed and rated by independent reviewers. The S.S.GRIN  program received high scores for quality of research and a perfect 4.0  in readiness for dissemination.

S.S.GRIN is a Response to  Intervention Tier 2 program that is addressing both bullies and victims  in schools across the country and around the world. An evidence-based, age-appropriate, anti-bullying intervention, S.S.GRIN has been proven to  dramatically reduce school violence and increase the social-emotional  competence of both perpetrators and victims.
