TESTIMONIALS

Oceanview District, Teacher Implementing this has helped me understand what's getting in the way for those students who try so hard and sometimes fail yet sometimes achieve. Now I can better help them. This has changed my approach!

Director, Early childhood Center, San Juan Capistrano

HBCC ... wonderful feedback from the teachers! Thank you for a worthwhile morning. Our teachers are grounded in what I call the "Guidance Approach" and the face that Collaborative Problem Solving is a "universal" approach, it fits right in with our program. Because this is not JUST for the children needing behavioral interventions, it addresses behavior issues in a proactive way and guides ALL students to help build skills. We're having great results with it and the parents like it too.

Helping the Behaviorally Challenging Child (HBCC) is a California Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation whose mission is to enable children experiencing behavioral health challenges to lead more productive and inclusive lives. We work to transform these children's lives by deepening adults’ understanding of their behaviors, and promoting effective interventions that focus on connectedness, collaboration, and inclusion.
