Class overview
OIS is an intensive training/certification program for implementing positive behavior support and safe intervention strategies when addressing behaviors that require intervention. This two day workshop focuses on support for adults and children with I/DD in the home or community.
The OIS workshop (Power Point, all workshop documents & OIS physical skills) is presented in English. The instructor speaks English only. If interpretation services are required (either in another language or ASL) please contact me at least 2 weeks prior to the workshop to request an interpreter.
This workshop may be cancelled due to insufficient registration.
Late arrivals will be admitted no later than 15 minutes after the class start time.
Refunds or credits will only be provided if the participant provides at least 2 weeks’ notice or if replacement is found.
About me
I am a Certified OIS Instructor with over 16 years of experience as an Adult Foster Care Provider, I bring a deep, hands-on understanding of compassionate care and individualized support to every Oregon Intervention System (OIS) class I teach.
My background in Exercise Science has given me a strong foundation in physical well-being, body mechanics, and behavior support strategies—knowledge that directly informs my approach to safe and respectful interventions.
Teaching has always been a passion of mine, and I’m dedicated to creating a welcoming, practical, and engaging learning environment where participants not only meet certification requirements but also gain real-world skills they can immediately apply in their work.
Whether you're new to the field or a seasoned professional, my goal is to help you feel confident, competent, and prepared to support individuals with care, respect, and dignity.
