This highly practical book is an accessible and grounded handbook
for addressing challenging behaviour in children and adults with
intellectual or developmental disabilities (IDD), including autism.
It recognises that challenging behaviour does not appear out of
nowhere and is meaningful for the person exhibiting it. Behaviour
can be communicative and an important signifier of underlying
sensory or environmental issues. Focusing on a person-centred
approach throughout, the book has advice and strategies for working
with the client's families, support staff and professionals. It
also presents best practice for analysing and addressing
challenging behaviour in various settings such as schools,
hospitals and the home, all while stressing the need to keep the
human story at the heart of any assessment and intervention. Each
chapter features questions for discussion or reflection and
exercises for the reader to complete. Informal, frank and free of
jargon, this is indispensable for professionals, parents, and
anyone working with people with intellectual disability or autism.
