Product Description:
Children of all abilities and developmental stages engage in problem behaviors.
Parents, caregivers, and teaching staff are often challenged when developing effective
interventions that teach more appropriate behaviors. Use of a Positive Behavior
Intervention and Supports (PBIS) approach has produced successful outcomes for
children who engage in problem behavior. PBIS is built on a foundation of preventing
problem behavior through environmental arrangement, effective teaching and
programming, as well as individualized interventions for children who engage in more
serious forms of challenging behavior. This packet will describe the foundations of PBIS
and identify strategies that effectively reduce challenging behavior in young children.
This packet has been provided to enable you and your staff to develop policies and
practices related to PBIS. Please disseminate as appropriate.
