"It is well established that a proportion of people with intellectual disabilities experience behavioural difficulties, such as self-harm or aggression towards others, which are underpinned by emotional and cognitive regulation skills deficits. The purpose of this manual is to enable practitioners to deliver skills training to people with mild to borderline intellectual disabilities who have problems managing and regulating their emotions, which in turn impact on their lives and relationships. The people who could benefit from such training may live in community settings, residential settings or secure settings. The programme is designed for delivery in a group setting, but can be adapted for individual intervention." - INTRODUCTION
