Understand before intervening
Rashene looks at behaviour as communication, context, learning history, and unmet need, not as a character flaw.
About JBNC
Led by Rashene Salmon, built for families and schools across Jamaica.
Jamaica Behaviour & Neurodevelopment Centre brings more than a decade of autism and behaviour experience into practical, accessible training for the people who support autistic children, adults, and families every day.
Rashene's Role
A dependable professional anchor for evidence-informed support.
Rashene brings the perspective of a working BCBA, master's-level ABA professional, and experienced autism practitioner to JBNC's programs. For more than ten years, she has worked directly with autistic children, adults, caregivers, and families who need practical support they can trust.
Her work includes designing individualized behaviour programs, coaching caregivers, supporting skill development, helping families understand challenging behaviour, and translating professional recommendations into routines people can actually follow at home, school, and in the community.

Our goal is to make autism and behaviour support feel understandable, respectful, and usable for Jamaican families and the people who serve them.
Rashene Salmon, Professional Lead
Rooted in Family
JBNC is professional, but it is also personal.
Rashene, her husband, and their children are part of the story behind JBNC. The centre is being built with the same care, steadiness, and long-term commitment families look for when they are trying to find support they can trust.
That family perspective matters. It keeps the work grounded in real homes across different stages of life, real school days, real routines, and the kind of practical guidance parents and caregivers need when they are carrying a lot.
How JBNC Works
The centre's approach is professional, practical, and collaborative.
Build programs families can use
Her strength is turning behaviour goals into practical programs that families and support teams can follow consistently.
Support the whole circle
JBNC's model supports parents, teachers, caregivers, and community partners so the child or adult is not supported in isolation.
