Autism and challenging behaviours are often seen as synonymous. A lot of interventions focus on changing the child to fit our notions of how children should behave. Whilst dealing with these behaviours, it is easy to forget that behaviours do not happen in a vacuum and there is interplay of an individual’s learning, as well as their environment. In our endeavors to ‘teach’, we often are unaware of the distress people with autism go through and the support they require. While starting early helps, adolescents and adults are not beyond hope. Regardless of age and abilities, anytime, is a good time to begin.
Through a series of lectures, videos, practical demonstrations and interactive exercises, Autism and Behaviours – Turning ‘Bad’ to ‘Good’ will focus on the reasons behind difficult and disruptive behaviours, techniques to prevent, redirect and move beyond them as well as discuss strategies to promote helpful behaviours – giving us a happier individual with autism and in turn a happier ‘us’.
This workshop can be attended by parents, teachers, shadows, and other professionals in both special needs as well as mainstream settings. While the workshop has been designed keeping in mind the unique learning styles of individuals with autism, it will be as applicable to all children, adolescents and adults.
