after school
For months, college students who run an after-school program have struggled to manage the challenging behaviors of a child with disabilities. As volunteers with no special education credentials and little training, can and should they continue to work with this student?

I believe they can continue to work with this child but they do need to receive some sort of training. It is difficult to expect them to know how to best manage this child if they aren't given the proper tools.

I think that they need to be trained with some sort of special needs because they need to know how these students react and how to handle them.

I agree with this statement. All teachers/caretakers of ESE students should have training due to the complex nature of so many disabilities.

I believe they should be able to continue working with the student, but I do recommend these individuals receive more training. Working with children who have disabilities can be challenging at times, and I do believe it takes a lot of patience, experience, and the use of effective strategies.

Are the college students also the volunteers? Either way they need training. Working with a child that has special needs needs a person with patience and a spirit of not giving up. The training will make their lives less stressful.

I believe they need training and until so they should not work with the students. How are they supposed to know how to handle it if they have no training, maybe as someone who is trained, give them tips and support how to do so until they receive the proper training.
