Working Together: A Guide to Positive Behavior Support For Families and Professionals
By Sharon Lohrmann and Fredda Brown

The purpose of this guide is to provide parents and professionals with an overview of Positive Behavior Support (PBS) and suggestions for working together while creating a support plan. Much of the suggestions in the guide are designed to help parents and professionals feel empowered as they work together during a potentially stressful period. Even under the best of circumstances problem behavior can evoke intense emotional responses such as fear, anger, frustration, and sadness. Because of this, it is important that parents and professionals support one another through respectful and constructive interactions as they work toward creating meaningful support strategies for the individual.

The guide is organized into 4 major sections:

• What is Positive Behavior Support?
• Conducting Functional Behavior Assessments
• Designing and Implementing Positive Supports
• Evaluating Supports
