Room 214 would like to give a HUGE thanks to Faisa Mohamud of the Child Development Institute for leading such a fantastic program and dedicating her time (and patience) to our students here at Twentieth Street. THANK YOU!
SNAP®, which stands for Stop Now And Plan, is an evidence-based cognitive behavioural model that provides a framework for teaching children struggling with behaviour issues, and their parents, effective emotional regulation, self-control and problem-solving skills. The primary goal of SNAP® is to keep children and youth in school and out of trouble. SNAP® has demonstrated positive treatment outcomes among children under the age of 12 with conduct and related behavioural problems and their families.

- Increased emotion-regulation and self-control skills in children and their parents
- Reduced aggression, bullying and antisocial behaviour
- Increased social competency
- Improved academic success by decreasing behavioural issues at school
