Positive Practices is committed to the goal of reducing and eliminating the use of Restrictive Practices for people with Disabilities. We firmly believe that peoples human rights should be upheld, and people should be free from experiencing the negative effects of ongoing and inappropriate use of Restrictive Practices.
