Behaviour Support Program
Sanctuary Aus specialises in providing Behaviour Support services for children and young people with disabilities who use challenging behaviours.
Sanctuary Aus strives to view the child, young person, parent and entire family in a holistic manner. We view behaviours as communication that signify needs. We focus on assessing a person’s development, strengths, relationships, needs and challenges to fully understand their behaviours and how to address them: rather than simply applying a one-size-fits-all plan.
Sanctuary Aus use evidence-based theories to deliver:
Interim Behaviour Support Planning, when there is an immediate need for behaviour support to minimise the risk to a person or others, due to their current behaviours.
Comprehensive Behaviour Support Planning, using holistic assessments and therepeutic tools to develop theories on why the person is using particular behaviours, with detailed analysis and recommendations for addressing these.
Positive Behaviour Support services, to deliver Behaviour Support services to the child, family and school to address challenging behaviours.
