PBS strategies

PBS, or Positive Behavior Support, is a proactive approach to encouraging good behavior and reducing problem behaviors. It involves understanding why a person acts a certain way by considering their environment, feelings, and needs. Strategies include teaching new skills, adjusting surroundings to make desired behaviors easier, and providing positive reinforcement when the person behaves appropriately. The goal is to improve quality of life for individuals by promoting behaviors that are beneficial and reducing those that may cause challenges. Overall, PBS focuses on prevention, support, and strength-based approaches to foster meaningful and sustainable behavior change.
