Pro-ACT trainer Dr. Rick Van Acker was selected to facilitate the workshop “Effectively Addressing Challenging Classroom Behavior” at the 2018 Cal-Ed Conference this month. Cal-Ed is an organization for Educators of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, and Dr. Van Acker will discuss how, like all students, those who are deaf or hard of hearing are often confronted with emotional, behavioral, and mental health disorders that give rise to challenging behavior, and proactive approaches to address these behaviors.
