Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) for NDIS participants Behaviour Support in Victoria Functional Behaviour Assessments for NDIS participants
A Behaviour Support Plan sets out practical, everyday strategies for National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) participants and the people who support them. We build it with you, using a Positive Behaviour Support approach.

Person-centred Positive Behaviour Support (PBS)
Behaviours of concern can affect daily life, relationships and safety. For the person, and for the people around them, it can feel confusing and tiring.
Behaviour is often a way of communicating a need. Understanding that need is a good place to start.
You don't have to work it out on your own.
How we can work together
-
Understand what's behind the behaviour
Where it's helpful, a Functional Behaviour Assessment looks at patterns, triggers and the needs a behaviour may be communicating.
-
Build a plan that fits everyday life
We work with you on a personalised Behaviour Support Plan with practical strategies that can help everyone respond in the same way.
-
Support the whole team
We coach families, carers and support workers so they feel confident using the plan. Where restrictive practices are in place, we work towards safer, less restrictive options.

Where it helps, we complete a Functional Behaviour Assessment and develop a Behaviour Support Plan. We then coach the support team and adjust the plan as needs change.

Common questions
What is a Behaviour Support Plan?
It's a written plan with practical strategies for everyday life. It's based on what we learn about the person and their behaviour, often through a Functional Behaviour Assessment. It helps everyone in the support team respond in consistent, respectful ways.
What is a Functional Behaviour Assessment?
It's a structured way of understanding behaviours of concern. A Behaviour Support Practitioner looks at what happens before and after a behaviour and what it may be communicating. They observe, talk with the participant and their supporters and review relevant history and records.
How is Behaviour Support funded?
Behaviour Support is funded through the NDIS under Improved Relationships. You'll need Behaviour Support funding included in your NDIS plan. Not sure what your plan covers? Talk to our team and we can work through it with you.
Who is Behaviour Support for?
We work with NDIS participants aged 16 and over whose behaviours of concern are affecting daily life, relationships, participation or safety. It can also help where restrictive practices are in use and the goal is to reduce them.
Who can make a referral?
Referrals can come from support coordinators, GPs or treating clinicians. Participants and families can also get in touch directly and we'll help guide the process.
