A Variety of People...

An Assortment of Programs and Services...

Behavioral Support

We provide behavioral support in three parts.

Functional Behavioral Assessment

A comprehensive functional analysis of those behaviors that interfere with a person's developmental growth or functioning in the home, school or community. Our behavior assessments include direct observation within the environment where the problem behavior occurs, and, we work with the parent or the caregiver to develop a thorough evaluation of the individual's needs.

Behavior Support Plan

We then develop a plan that is customized to the individual and designed to assist that person in changing inappropriate behavioral patterns to appropriate behavior.  Our work results in seeing more effective interpersonal skills in the person which acts to enhance their overall joy of life, and makes day to day life more pleasant for the parent or caregiver.

Parent/Caregiver Training
