Working with children and young people, with disabilities who are displaying harmful sexual behaviours

Children and young people with disabilities may experience unique vulnerabilities, communication differences, sensory needs, and environmental factors that shape how behaviours develop and are expressed.

This course helps counsellors, psychologists, behaviour support practitioners, disability workers, and other professionals who support children and young people with disabilities distinguish between typical, concerning, and harmful behaviours; understand contributing factors; and implement interventions that are safe, ethical, and supportive.
