Abstract: Response to intervention (RTI) is a process used to identify academic, behavioral, and/or social-emotional supports for students with school related concerns. School counselors often serve on this team as supporters, interveners, advocates, and facilitators. English learners present unique language, access and identification challenges to RTI. This article presents a framework for school counselors to utilize during their advocacy for English learners in the instructional RTI process. The model outlines relevant stakeholders, parent/guardian supports, interpreter guidelines, and pertinent academic resources needed to advocate for English learners in the instructional RTI process.
