FEBRUARY: De-escalation Strategies for Crisis Situations

Tuesday, February 18th, 12pm to 1pm ET

Individuals with Phelan-McDermid syndrome may exhibit challenging behaviors, which may become more difficult to manage as the child gets older. When handling difficult behaviors with our teenage and adult children with Phelan-McDermid syndrome, there are strategies we can use to help minimize the impact and extent of these behaviors.

During this session, we will learn about de-escalation strategies and how to apply them in challenging situations that can arise in our day-to-day lives with Phelan-McDermid syndrome. This session will be facilitated by Cory Sutton, Law Enforcement Liaison and Phelan-McDermid Syndrome Dad.

We are excited to offer this new topic and we hope you will join us. Please click the link below to register! Please note that this session will be recorded and the recording link will be sent to everyone who registers.
