Managing challenging behaviors of loved ones with developmental disabilities can be one of the most stressful aspects of parenting. This free workshop will focus on providing families with practical strategies that they can use at home. Preventive, alternative skill-building, reinforcement and desensitization strategies will all be addressed. Research has supported the use of these approaches for a wide range of challenging behaviors in both children and adults. Workshop participants will leave with a greater understanding of why challenging behaviors may occur and how families can successfully intervene at home.
Light refreshments will be served.
