Stories from the Field Stories from the Field are brief illustrations of real life experiences with positive behavior support.  Each story includes a background, a description of the focus person and context (who, when, where, why), the obstacles/barriers and enablers/resources encountered, assessment and interventions/support strategies developed, outcomes and plans for ongoing/future support, and a summary with lessons learned.  The Behavior Support Plan developed for the focus person accompanies each story.  Stories from the Field are currently available as HTML documents. Behavior Support Plans A pool of different Behavior Support Plans has been compiled to demonstrate the variety in plans and provide consumers with a better understanding of how Support Plans may be developed.  These sample Plans may be used to guide and inform the development of Behavior Support Plans, but should not be replicated or copied.
