Positive Behavior Support Model

The Positive Behavior Support (PBS) Model is an approach that helps individuals develop better behaviors by understanding the reasons behind their actions. Instead of just punishing bad behavior, PBS focuses on teaching and reinforcing positive behaviors through proactive strategies, support, and personalized plans. It aims to create a respectful and supportive environment, addressing the person's needs and preferences, which can lead to improved behavior and overall well-being. This approach is used in schools, workplaces, and homes to promote positive interactions and reduce challenging behaviors effectively.
