Who's who in CBF
Vivien Cooper - Founder of The Challenging Behaviour Foundation
My son Daniel has severe learning disabilities and challenging behaviour. I know from first hand experience the issues facing families caring for individuals described as 'challenging'.
I started the CBF to try and ensure that the information available about understanding and managing challenging behaviour gets to those who need it, those who are encountering it every day. I am also determined that children or adults with challenging behaviour should not be transported hundreds of miles away from their home and families to have their complex needs met.
The message I would like to give to other families is that you should not be made to feel guilty because your son or daughter is the most difficult to manage, or most expensive to fund. You are not alone, and the Challenging Behaviour Foundation is here to support you.
