Description:

A comprehensive overview of behavior supports for developmentally disabled individuals who engage in sexually inappropriate and/or ‘risky’ sexualized behavior(s).

Even though these individuals display such behavior, positive behavior support continues to be the expected modality.

The presentation will include:

• Functionally assessing the behaviors of concern, with regard to risk level and arriving at an understanding of how the behavior “medicates the brain”
• Supporting the team in arriving at conclusions regarding supervision levels and “Media Filter”
• Developing a proactive teaching component to supports
• Facilitating “environmental arrangement”
• Developing necessary crisis response to behaviors

Directions:

Near Killingsworth and MLK.
