The Connections Framework™

One shared process for families and schools: Understand → Implement → Embed

Understand

Build shared awareness of needs, regulation, and communication. Behaviour is information.

Implement

Apply connection-first strategies at home and in classrooms using plain-English tools.

Embed

Align policy, language, culture and routines so connection becomes “how we do things here”.
