Practice that leaves evidence.
The supplied BRAVE materials move beyond discussion by asking what was practiced, what changed and what evidence supports the next step.
The five progress levels in the January guide.
These are source-defined development levels, not a validated outcome scale or an automatic discharge rule.
| Level | Source description |
|---|---|
| 1 — Awareness | Can name the skill and recognize failure patterns |
| 2 — Assisted practice | Can perform the skill with prompting and scripts |
| 3 — Independent practice | Uses the skill in real life at least weekly |
| 4 — Generalization | Uses the skill across settings and anticipates barriers |
| 5 — Maintenance/leadership | Sustains the skill under stress and models it for others |
The contact sequence.
The guide describes agenda and boundaries, skill naming, practice, a 72-hour action plan, and a closing confirmation. The youth manual describes artifacts, rubrics and verification logs as a portfolio of readiness.
01
Practice
Rehearse a script, routine or micro-behavior.
02
Artifact
Use an action plan, support map or routine checklist as evidence.
03
Verification
Record what was done, what remains and how the next step will be confirmed.
Evidence is not an attendance tally.
The youth manual’s distinction is that time-eligible does not automatically mean ready. A local program must select the applicable version, scoring approach, reasonable adaptations and review authority before use.
Bring the model into real operation.
Define the receiving organization, authority, scope, people, tools and review evidence before adopting or launching a service.
