RTI Action Network

The RTI Action Network is dedicated to the effective implementation of Response to Intervention (RTI) in school districts nationwide. Our goal is to guide educators and families in the large-scale implementation of RTI so that each child has access to quality instruction and that struggling students – including those with learning and attention issues – are identified early and receive the necessary supports to be successful. The RTI Action Network is a program of the National Center for Learning Disabilities, funded by the Cisco Foundation and in partnership with the nation’s leading education associations and top RTI experts.

When educators systematically monitor students' academic and behavioral progress to make data-based instructional decisions, educators teach more effectively and their students' achievement increases considerably.  The Center on RTI is a national leader in supporting the successful implementation and scale-up of RTI and its components.
