Building Positive Behaviour: An Introduction to Supporting Positive Behaviour Change | Webinar | 18/06/2020
This webinar is recommended for parents and carers of children with Autism aged 0 to 18 years
Behaviour is how we act and react to everyday environments and situations. We all engage in behaviour that challenges others at times, it’s part of being a person. In some cases though, people develop behaviours that persist, interfering with their day-to-day experiences, affecting their relationships and impacting their quality of life.
A positive and pro-active approach includes considering the reasons for the person’s behaviour so that we can work out how to help make things better for them.
