New Behavioral Video
PWS is unlike any other developmental disability and arguably one of the most complex and misunderstood. Presented by Lisa Graziano, M.A., this four hour training course will give you the tools you need to reduce unwanted behavior common amongst persons with PWS. Topics include how to manage the medical aspects of PWS as they impact behavior, how to create a supportive PWS-environment, how most persons with PWS think, and tons of specific PWS-specific strategies and interventions to help you starting today!

Research Opportunity
California State University Fullerton would like to invite participants with PWS ages 18 to 35 years to participate in a study designed to understand which factors contribute to muscle force, balance and walking characteristics in PWS. The study will require one short visit (3-4 hours) to California State University Fullerton. Visit our research page for details on this and other opportunities.
