Detail:

2-nd International Positive Behaviour Support Conference
(You can consult the meeting's Web pages.)

May 10-11, 2012

Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom

Event sponsored by: British Institute of Learning Disabilities [BILD]


Positive behaviour support approaches have become established as the preferred approach when working with people with learning disabilities who exhibit behaviours described as challenging.

This is now reflected in a significant body of authoritative guidance, including the British Psychological Society’s Guidelines (Baileral 2004), and the Joint Guidelines of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, the British Psychological Society and the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists (2007).

The strengths and successes of positive behaviour support approaches provide the reason for the increasing support for their use. They are fundamentally rooted in person centred values, aiming to enhance community presence, increasing personal skills and competence and placing emphasis on respect for the individual being supported.

They also use quality of life improvements for the person, both as an intervention and as an outcome measure.

This conference will bridge the gap between academic research and practice and will help support organisations to define and deliver good practice in positive behaviour support. It will bring together researchers and practitioners with an interest both in the evidence base of the impact of positive behaviour support, and in its practical application.
