• While training at the universal level around the world, one of the common concerns was lack of familial participation in programs that supported Universal Behavior Support (UBS). Through trial and error, we have developed first some sure-fire tips to get family members coming through the door to participate. We will share ideas that work with Pre-K through Secondary.
• Once you have family member involvement the first time, how do you keep them coming to the school and participating in ways that support your UBS program? We will share ways to keep the family members coming and connected.
• The entire state of Pennsylvania is using Dr. Riffel’s family involvement program. Comments from administrators have been they did not realize how many opportunities they were missing and how easy it would be to change the climate at the school to encourage family participation that supported their school-wide behavior program.
