Can understanding the intricacies of human behavior transform your church community? Join me, Tracie Corll, as we embark on an enlightening journey through the complex functions of challenging behaviors within ministry settings. We promise you'll gain valuable insights into sensory, escape, and attention-seeking behaviors, learning how to create more inclusive and supportive environments for everyone involved. Discover when accommodating sensory behavior is more beneficial than attempting to change it, and explore strategies for helping individuals manage escape behaviors through breaks or task division. Through real-world examples, we guide you in responding effectively to attention-seeking actions, encouraging positive behavior and fostering a stronger, more understanding community.
In the second chapter of our podcast, we delve into the essentials of understanding behavior through the ABCs: antecedent, behavior, and consequence. By unraveling these elements, you'll learn to identify the root causes behind actions, such as attention-seeking or avoidance, and implement positive replacement behaviors inspired by Christian teachings. We discuss the challenges of limited interactions in church environments, yet emphasize the profound importance of supporting each individual's spiritual journey. By recognizing behavioral patterns, we can guide individuals to serve and glorify God with their unique gifts, ultimately enriching the fabric of your church community.
