The ANTS in your PANTS framework was developed by an Occupational Therapist and an Inclusive Education Teacher. It is grounded in the principles of trauma-informed care and integrates key concepts from attachment theory, self-regulation, and social-emotional learning.

Designed to support educators in understanding and responding to challenging behavior, the framework offers practical, trauma-informed strategies that can be applied directly in the classroom. This model is introduced in-depth through professional development workshops and can be used to enhance everyday classroom practices and student support planning.
