During the seminar, attendees
- learn the six guidelines to TIP
- engage in small-group discussions of TIP
- practice intervention strategies
- hear from a panel of young adults with EBD
- design their own community transition system
Dr. Clark answers questions, helps participants understand the frustrating experience of being a young adult with EBD, and shows how audience members can make a difference in the lives of these individuals.
