'Self-harm & Suicide in Youth' Series

Reports of youth suicide and self-harm are growing at an alarming rate. This phenomenon seems to be widespread across the entire spectrum of young people, irrespective of their socio-economic status, level of education, and family background. 
 
This series of 2 workshops is designed for those who work with young people in a range of community, educational, private, public, inpatient, and outpatient settings. Participants will learn effective intervention strategies and techniques to help at-risk young people:
  • Risk Assessment, Case Management & Prevention Strategies
  • Practical Intervention Strategies and Treatment

Working with Children and Adolescents with ADHD

An analysis of 175 studies worldwide estimated that around 7% of children and adolescents 18 years and under have been diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. In Singapore, a study of 2400 children between the ages of 6 to 12 estimated that 4.9% had disruptive behavior disorders according to parent ratings.

​
This course is distinctively different from others of the same title: it scaffolds important ADHD information with group activities that help participants experience these information in a refreshingly clear way. For instance, beyond classroom instruction, participants will, through facilitator-guided activities, get a glimpse of how a child with ADHD navigates his world. Participants will also learn key interventions skills, practical tips and strategies that can be immediately applied in the workplace.

Managing Difficult Children and Adolescents with School Refusal, Examination Phobia and Anger Issues

Children and adolescents face a wide ranges of pressure within and outside the school context. These can vary from family, social & relationships, and academic stresses. When a young person does not cope with these challenges well, they are likely to become frustrated and this can then manifest as school refusal, examination phobia and anger problems.

This workshop aims to (a) teach participants useful intervention strategies and skills and (b) equip them to develop effective behavioural management programs that can help difficult young people. Permeating  the entire session will be the emphasis that the people-helper help from a spirit of compassion and patience.

Working with Children and Adolescents with Intellectual Disabilities: Positive Behaviour Support
Challenging behaviour can arise for different reasons, often personal to the child or youth with intellectual disability such as hurting himself or hurting others. It makes life more difficult for the person himself and those around him. It is hence critical that social care professionals have the right skills and knowledge to support such people.

This full-day workshop is designed for social service professionals & special needs teachers working with children and adolescents with moderate to severe challenging behaviours in disability services. It comprises 5 parts: Part A explains the theoretical underpinnings of PBS. Part B explores communication techniques to reduce behaviours of concern. Part C and D discuss the assessments and strategies when working with people with disabilities. Part E concludes the workshop by exploring various considerations when implementing a PBS plan.
