Limited Capacity seats available

Participants will receive an overview of aspects of Youth Development K-5  and Positive Behavior support that most impact OST.

In the segment on Youth Development, workshop participants will discuss and explore the following questions: What are the development challenges from Kindergarten to 5th grade? How can programs be sure they are supporting increased competency? How can programs determine if youth are struggling to meet developmental milestones? What can programs do to increase youth competency and foster success?

In the segment on Positive Behavior Support, participants will understand positive behavior support (PBS) as a continuum of support for all students. We will identify and explore successful interventions for individuals and groups of young people. During our discussion, we will identify a continuum of interventions to promote youth self-regulation and social competency.
