- Safety, regulation and connection over control
- Compassionate, function-based behavioural support

- Prepare graphs, summaries and other materials to support clinical decision-making
- Provide in-the-moment coaching, modelling and constructive feedback to front-line staff
- Support staff competency development in data collection, antecedent strategies, reinforcement, skill-building, co-regulation and function-based intervention
- Assist with clinical training and staff competency assessments
- Help prepare program materials, data sheets, visual supports and implementation resources
- Support the consistent application of trauma-informed, compassionate and assent-based practices
