Narrative

The Behavior Services Division uses Universal Positive Behavior Support within their practices. Universal Positive Behavior Support is a systematic, person-centered approach to understanding the reasons for behavior and applying evidence-based practices for prevention and intervention to achieve meaningful social outcomes, increase learning, and enhance the quality of life. The Behavior Services Division provides extensive training and monitoring of Positive Behavior Support practices. Individualized Targeted and Intensive Positive Behavior Support Plans are created for individuals for whom Universal Positive Behavior Supports were not effective at reducing severe problem behavior completely. These plans include: A Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA), observations, data collection, and continuous monitoring.
