About this service
The Positive Support Behaviour (PBS) Program is a voluntary family-based program for children and youth, between the ages 6-18 years of age who are exhibiting challenging behaviours that are impacting the overall quality of life for the individual and family. Anyone referred to the PBS Program must have an active Ministry of Children and Development (MCFD) file. Referrals must be submitted by their Child and Youth Special Needs (CYSN) Social Worker.
Service length in the PBS Program is typically 1 year. Parents meet with the PBS Consultant weekly to create a comprehensive Positive Behaviour Support Plan. Plans are evaluated and adapted throughout the course of the year to ensure success. The PBS Program is not a one-to-one child based intervention service; instead, the PBS Consultant meets and collaborates with parents. Some direct skill teaching with the child may occur as needed.
Who can use it?
