Positive practices are a set of specific tools used to facilitate growth and learning in the people we support. They are based on the concepts of gentle teaching and human interdependence and focus strongly on building a sense of self-worth by providing positive attention to desired behavior and disregard of negative behavior. Learning to focus on a person completely with positive regard and fully encourage learning takes a great deal of practice (it is not the way that most people interact with the world).
