Positive Behavioural Support (PBS) is an approach that blends values about the rights of people with disabilities with a practical science about how learning and behaviour change occur. The overriding goal of positive behavioural support is to enhance quality of life for individuals and their support providers (Horner, 1999)

  11. The Values of Positive Behavioural Support • People are individuals with gifts & hopes • People are members of families, peer groups & society • People influence their circumstances in personally meaningful ways • People have the right to be treated with dignity & understanding • Relationships and contexts impact the quality of a person’s life
