Laurel Behaviour Support Services (LBSS) proudly introduced their brand new “Imagine” newsletter this past September. Containing news you can use from the passionate Okanagan team – Becky, Brandon, Alysha, Blaine, Nadia, and Jeremy are delighted to share how they are making changes that matter in the field of Early Intensive Behaviour Intervention and Behaviour Consultation for children and adults with autism spectrum disorders and other intellectual disabilities. All articles are crafted by the Okanagan consultants, however, these informative resources are helpful for families and support teams throughout BC, looking to successfully increase an individual’s independence in the community.

Special features include:

  • Leap Forward Moments highlighting inspirational stories from persons served
  • Inclusion tips
  • Assistive apps and technology
  • Training updates
  • Access to upcoming info sessions and workshops
  • Industry news, and more!

These newsletters serve as evidence based resources for families to gain valuable skills in order to improve the quality of life for the individual in need. Be sure to check out what’s inside our three latest issues at www.laurelbc.ca/newsletters.
