Leading the way to thriving learners worldwide.

Our Vision

The International MTSS Association (IMA) unites research, practice, and policy to advance evidence-based systems and strengthen leadership worldwide—ensuring every learner thrives.

Putting Research in the Hands of those who Need it Most

Promote implementation science as a foundation for sustainable MTSS frameworks

Advance equity and inclusion by addressing systemic barriers within and across educational systems

Support for Communities

Share innovative, evidence-based practices that improve outcomes for all learners

Provide professional learning, technical assistance, and collaborative networking.
