Purpose
This paper aims to discuss the importance of offering high-quality support focussed on developing the skills of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Design/methodology/approach

Developing the skills of staff members and services users should be one of our primary aims. Evidence-based practices grounded in behaviour analysis can help produce optimal outcomes that will improve the quality of service provision and, subsequently, the service users’ quality of life.
Originality/value
This paper is aimed at parents and professionals working in the field of disabilities who are keen to further improve the service provision of people with disabilities.
