This workshop will help schools and organizations create and maintain safer, more caring environments by teaching preventative actions that result in decreased need for physical restraints. Handle With Care is committed to teaching staff how to deal with a behaviorally challenged population in a way that preserves the student's dignity, is safe, and enables continued positive learning and behavioral development by preserving and enhancing the therapeutic relationship. Handle with Care is committed to the emotional and physical safety of behaviorally challenged individuals whose behavior is harmful to themselves or others and the staff and organizations that support them. The 6-hour training will consist of the basic training program - Handle With Care Behavior Management System. The program will consist of a verbal and physical program. If you have physical limitations, you will need to inform the instructors. If you are unable to successfully complete the program, you will receive a certificate of participation, but a Handle With Care certificate will not be administered, and is at the discretion of the trainer.
*** Knee Pads will be provided, but you will need to wear athletic clothes and shoes.
**Each district that participates will be responsible for a $350 fee to Handle With Care. The $350 covers an unlimited amount of participants to be trained in HWC. Please contact Monica Morris with any questions.
