Learn neuroaffirming strategies to understand and support behaviour, focusing on strengths, goals, and preferences.

This module explores understanding and responding to behaviour in a neuroaffirming way when supporting neurodivergent participants.

Discover that all behaviour is meaningful, arising from sensory needs, communication differences, or environmental factors.

The module covers gathering participant information, reflecting on responses, and applying practical strategies that focus on strengths, goals, and preferences to create supportive, empowering aquatic experiences.
