Book Common Compass to create and facilitate a staff training that is focused on strengthening the understanding of challenging behaviours as well as the emotions, beliefs, expectations and desires that lie beneath those behaviours. The goal of the training is to increase awareness, confidence and use of practical, evidence-based strategies to address challenging camper and staff behaviours. Ultimately, when challenging behaviours are mitigated quickly, or even prevented by proactive strategies, the overall camp experience is more positive for everyone.
