Guided by the SCERTS Framework
Branchability’s work is informed by the SCERTS Framework, an evidence-informed model that supports communication, emotional regulation, and the environments around the individual. It helps shape a more thoughtful, responsive approach to inclusion by focusing not just on the person, but on the systems, relationships, and support strategies that influence everyday participation.
Social Communication
Focuses on the development of spontaneous, functional communication, emotional expression, and secure, trusting relationships with both children and adults.
Emotional Regulation
Focuses on supporting individuals in maintaining a regulated emotional state so they can better manage everyday stress, engage with others, and remain available for learning.
Transactional Support
Focuses on the development of supports that help others respond to an individual’s needs, adjust the environment, and provide tools that strengthen learning, emotional support, and collaboration.

It is awesome to have coach Amanda as coach. Coach Amanda makes me feel confident, supported and happy. How coach Amanda helps me to learn more is if I am doing something wrong for say she will take me to the sidelines and talk about it. Something that coach Amanda taught me is how to shoot better. Yes I feel more confident with coach Amanda. Something that made me proud of that coach Amanda helped me with is to get closer to the basket. My favourite part of coach Amanda is every time I see her she makes me smile and laugh a lot. Yes I enjoy working with coach Amanda.
