What is an intervention? Answer ?

According to Nystul 5th ed. p390, the Amercian School Counseling Association in its revised statement (1990) identifies 5 basic interventions common to all school counselors. These are: individual counseling; small-group counseling (5-8) large group guidance (9+); consultation and program coordination.
The 2009 statement doesn't list these interventions, but refers to delivery of responsive services which include :
individual or group counseling
consultation with parents, teachers and other educators
referrals to other school support services or community resources
peer helping
psycho-education
intervention and advocacy at the systemic level
