The short webinars introduce Positive Behaviour Support (PBS). They are produced by Learning Disability CAMHS and Child Development Psychology. However, they are for anyone to watch who may be supporting someone having difficulties with distressing behaviours to help them to consider triggers for behaviours and helpful strategies. Generally this would be for parents or carers. They may be supportive of young people with Autism or a Learning Disability but you do not need to have this diagnosis. They are for anyone to understand their behaviours and support overall wellbeing and quality of life.
The webinars at the bottom of the page are longer training sessions aimed at supporting parents or professionals using PBS.
