Course Description

This presentation provides an interdisciplinary framework for supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) who are experiencing grief and bereavement. Drawing on research demonstrating the long-term behavioral and emotional impact of loss on individuals with IDD, the presenters highlight how grief is frequently overlooked or misattributed in this population. The session features perspectives from both a behavior analyst and a licensed mental health counselor, modeling the type of interdisciplinary collaboration needed to address grief comprehensively.

What You'll Learn

  1. Describe at least three behavioral and emotional indicators of maladaptive grief in individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
  2. Apply interdisciplinary collaboration strategies to coordinate grief support between behavior analysts, mental health counselors, and caregivers.
  3. Identify appropriate screening tools and referral pathways to ensure individuals with IDD receive timely, compassionate grief support.
