History & Stewardship
The Long-Term Home of the Pyramid Model
The Pyramid Model was developed through federally funded national centers, including the Center on the Social and Emotional Foundations for Early Learning (CSEFEL) and the Technical Assistance Center on Social Emotional Intervention for Young Children (TACSEI). As those funding cycles concluded, the founders established the Pyramid Model Consortium to ensure the framework remained accessible, supported, and responsive. Today, PMC serves as the long-term steward of the Pyramid Model—partnering with national centers and systems to preserve its integrity while supporting continued growth and adaptation.
