SUMMARY:FMS Series: Positive Approaches (Grande Prairie)
DESCRIPTION:Inclusion Alberta Family Resource Centre – Grande Prairie & Area presents: THE FMS LEARNING SERIES 2022/2023 \nPOSITIVE APPROACHES\nWhen: Saturday\, February 4\, 2023 | 10am – 3pm \nWhere: Al Robertson Room Centre 2000\, 11330 106 St\, Grande Prairie \nWorkshop Presenter: Arne Fulton\, Complex Needs Coordinator \nTo register: Register online here\, or contact Laura at 780-882-9477 or FRC-GP@inclusionalberta.org \nToo often\, the efforts of people with developmental disabilities to communicate their needs result in being identified as having challenging behavior or as having complex needs. Targeting and addressing behaviour in this way puts people at risk of having their needs ignored\, being isolated or openly punished for trying to express their needs. As a result\, individuals with developmental disabilities\, sometimes compounded by mental health and other challenges\, are often identified with complex needs and live very restricted and chaotic lives. \nArne Fulton\, Provincial Coordinator of the Complex Needs Initiative\, will share how Inclusion Alberta works with families\, individuals\, family managed support staff\, and service providers to develop meaningful and thoughtful positive approaches. This session will explore concepts and methods that focus on developing positive approaches to support people with developmental disabilities identified with complex needs to have greater stability in their pursuit of an inclusive life in the community. \nThe session will cover the following: \n\nUnderstanding loneliness and its relationship to unmet needs\nTrauma Informed Care\nNormalizing expression as a means of communication\nReframing the description of behaviour by changing the lens through which we view communication\n\nFamilies and FMS staff are encouraged to attend. \nLunch will be provided. \nREGISTER HERE.
