![]() Nine studies reported that task-shifting MI was positively received by clients and/or providers. ![]() Of these 19 studies, 15 reported that paraprofessionals improved in using MI following training. The current paper provides a scoping review of 19 studies of training paraprofessional providers to use MI to evaluate trainee characteristics, training content and format, and outcomes. However, no review of training exclusively paraprofessional samples in MI has yet been conducted. Task-shifting could be especially promising in expanding Motivational Interviewing (MI) interventions, as MI can be molded to target a number of academic and behavioral outcomes important to schools. One way to increase the reach of helpful services for youth is to grow the SMH workforce through task-shifting to paraprofessionals. The supply of school mental health (SMH) providers and services cannot meet the demand of students in-need, and this gap is expected to widen in coming years.
