Redefining Differences: A Biopsychosocial Approach to Addressing Special Needs

Join the eXtension Child and Family Learning Network, along with human development specialist Dr. Nichole Huff, for a webinar on better serving individuals and families with special biopsychosocial needs. A biopsychosocial model (BPS) is one that acknowledges the distinct yet interdependent roles that a person’s biological, psychological, and social systems play in their overall health and functioning.

The webinar aims to:

  1. Teach professionals how to educate themselves on BPS differences;
  2. Assist professionals in fostering empathy and understanding; and
  3. Provide professionals with empowering instructional techniques to apply when serving individuals and families experiencing physical, cognitive, or emotional differences.
