In our past bulletins, we have explored different parts of positive behaviour support.

This included how to provide high-quality supports to help people live good lives.

Quality is about good services that:

• meet the needs of people with disability
• give people choice and control.

We looked at how:

• what a person needs can affect their behaviour
• their behaviour changes when they don’t get what they need.

We also looked at:

• working together to support what a person needs

• making sure everyone involved gets the support they need.

You can find more information in:

• bulletin 6
• bulletin 7
• bulletin 10.

In this bulletin, we look at a tool that can help people think about:

• important needs that everyone has

• if the supports are meeting a person’s needs.

The tool is called ‘Understanding Me’.
