The West Virginia Schools of Diversion and Transition provides educational services to over 6,000 juveniles and adults in residential and other state-operated facilities. The State Department of Education and the State Board of Education have assumed an important role in protecting the constitutional rights of this population by providing programs and services that help change their lives.

In 2017 the Office of Diversion and Transition Programs (ODTP) took the initiative to begin implementing the PBIS model in its schools and facilities in a collaborative facility-wide model (FWPBIS). The FWPBIS model utilizes the PBIS philosophy to design a PBIS program that is facilitated throughout the daily milieu as opposed to School-Wide PBIS which is just facilitated during school hours. BJS and DHHR licensed facilities work in collaboration with the ODTP schools to design, implement, and facilitate the FWPBIS model.
