Do you struggle with managing challenging behaviors of the youth in your program? Would you like to learn a way to facilitate youths’ self-management skills when they misbehave? In this Behavior Management series participants will learn how to reframe all youth behavior as opportunities for youth to learn responsibility, emotion management and problem-solving skills.
In the Part 2 training session, participants will dive deeper into how youth have “Mistaken Beliefs” when they are acting out. You will have an opportunity to practice activities and strategies that help youth improve their communication, responsibility, problem-solving and empathy skills. You will leave this training with a “toolkit” of easy-to-use activities and strategies to improve youth behavior.
