Behavior Management
Working Together To Keep Families Together
Intent
To help each family member identify their strengths and learn how to interact safely and respectfully toward each other.
…for the child or youth, to take control of what they say and do by improving the choices they make.
… for the parent or caregiver, how to give their child guidance and support and to effectively redirect misbehavior.
