Help design learning environments that students love and prevent problem behaviors. Problem behaviors remain one of the most difficult and stressful challenges for practitioners, parents, and persons on the autism spectrum. This full-day workshop will offer practical, respectful, and innovative ways to assess, prevent, and support problem behaviors.
