Achieving positive behaviour change and seeing people and families enjoying life is hugely rewarding. Whilst Positive Behaviour Support is based on the science of behaviour analysis, it is an ethical framework model. We avoid using punishment and teach skills to replace problem behaviour. We improve environments and work to improve people’s quality of life and the people around them.
