Behavioral Supports

Behavioral supports refer to strategies and interventions designed to promote positive behaviors and reduce challenging ones, often used for individuals with developmental, emotional, or behavioral needs. These supports focus on understanding the factors that influence behavior, such as environment or feelings, and then teaching new skills or modifying surroundings to encourage desirable actions. The goal is to enhance quality of life, increase independence, and foster effective communication, ensuring the individual’s needs are met in a respectful and supportive way.
