Self & Match forms are dynamic and evolve as there is behavioral growth. As progress takes root and flourishes over time, the forms adapt, ensuring an intervention that remains finely tuned to the individual’s journey of behavioral improvement.
Each form is meticulously created, keeping in mind the unique dynamics of students, classrooms, schools, and clinics. What sets the forms apart is their ability to seamlessly adapt, ensuring a solution that’s not just effective, but tailor-made to align with student needs. Whether on paper or in the digital realm, Self & Match forms are flexible to suit your team’s preferences and strategies.
At the core of each form lies a positive collaboration between educators, parents, and the child, teen, or young adult participating in the program. Together, they define:
• Specific Goals: Precise behavioral milestones that pave the way for growth.
• Specific Rating Opportunities: Targeted instances for measuring progress and celebrating accomplishments.
• Specific Rewards: Tailored incentives that resonate with participants, boosting motivation and fostering a sense of achievement.
