Behaviour Intervention

We aim to create a personalised service to assist in managing challenging behaviour in children, adolescents and adults with disability. Our behaviour intervention and support programs involve specialist intervention (behaviour and communication support) for people with a disability who live the in the community and have challenging behaviours. We also offer behaviour and program support for people with multiple disabilities & challenging behaviours.

ABA

The Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) approach and its techniques can help children with Autism Spectrum Disorder learn new ways of interacting with others, improve academic performance and use the skills they learn in different settings – such as home, school and in the community.

It can also help children learn to replace difficult behaviour with more appropriate behaviour. For example, using words to ask for an object rather than screaming.
