Positive Behaviour Support Services for Children and Young People with Learning Disabilities and Autism

This opportunity involves providing Positive Behaviour Support services to children and young people who have a learning disability and/or autism diagnosis. The service is targeted at individuals registered on a Dynamic Support Register who are identified as at risk of placement breakdown or mental health in-patient admission. Providers will work with vulnerable young people to implement evidence-based behavioural interventions and support strategies designed to prevent crisis situations, reduce the likelihood of institutional care, and promote positive outcomes. The service supports children and young people to develop coping strategies, improve emotional regulation, and maintain stable community placements. Suppliers should have expertise in trauma-informed practice, behaviour analysis, and working with neurodivergent populations. This is a preventative service aimed at improving quality of life and maintaining young people within their family or community settings.
