Positive Behavior Supports are used when there is a need to develop a plan which identifies prevention strategies to reduce significant challenging behaviors which interfere with activities of daily living, social interaction, or work. Our behavior specialists will complete a Functional Assessment, create a Positive Behavior Support Plan, instruct on evidence-based replacement skills and new ways to respond to challenging behaviors.
