Provides a “common language” for all staff to assist clients and equips all staff with the effective communication skills needed to practice basic mental health.
Trains and certifies professionals in highly effective skills that prevent and manage aggressive behavior.
Increases safety by creating a culture where clients feel “seen” and establish meaningful connections with staff.
