Update: Seattle Children’s moved away from the IOP model in 2023 and created two new programs – Foundations for Managing Disruptive Behavior and Intensive Caregiver Group for Managing Disruptive Behavior. They serve the same population as the IOP (all insurances that are in network with SCH are accepted). Information can be found on the Behavior and Attention Management Website: https://www.seattlechildrens.org/clinics/psychiatry-and-behavioral-medicine/services/behavior-and-attention-management-program/

A new Disruptive Behavior Intensive Outpatient Program (DB-IOP) based at Seattle Children’s will provide evidence-based treatment for parents and caregivers of children who struggle with unsafe behaviors including aggression and property destruction. Launched this month, the program is focused on helping families of children ages 5 to 12 who struggle with extreme emotion and inability to regulate their behavior to where it is causing disruption at home, school and in the community. The program is only for families covered by Medicaid/Apple Health.
