Did you miss our first training held on Nov. 14? Don't worry - there's a second training coming up in December!

"Got Challenging Behavior: Now What?" is a collaboration between Child Find and the SRPMIC Special Needs Resource Program. The training is open to all SRPMIC families. It will be held Wednesday, Dec. 6, from 4-6 p.m. in the Education Board Room (the circular structure in the southeast corner of the ECEC/Admin campus). Dinner will be provided.

Participants will learn Pivotal response treatment (PRT) and how it builds and improves on the basic principles of behavior modification. PRT uses a child's natural motivations (toys, games, and activities that a child wants and cares about) to teach and reinforce new, pro-social behaviors.

Please RSVP by calling 480-362-2257. Questions? Call Nikki Thomas, SRS Child Find Coordinator, at 480-362-2214, or Zandria Ransom, SRPMIC Special Needs Coordinator, at 480-362-6980.
