ARMIDILO-S
Structured Risk Management & Safety Planning for IDD Settings
What it does
ARMIDILO-S is a structured tool used to understand risk and manageability for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, with a strong focus on how environments, supports, and staff practices influence safety.
Why it’s used
It helps teams move beyond restriction or exclusion by identifying practical strategies that allow individuals to live safely in shared homes, supported living, and community settings.
What it supports
Clear staff strategies and supervision guidance
Individualized safety and support protocols
Community and shared-living risk management
Consistent, trauma-informed staff responses
Best for
Supported living and group homes
Community participation planning
Behaviour support and diversion planning
Key outcome
Real-world safety plans that protect both the individual and others while supporting dignity, inclusion, and stability.
Socio-Sexual Knowledge & Attitudes Assessment Tool – Revised
What it does
The Socio-Sexual Knowledge and Attitudes Assessment Tool – Revised (SSKAAT-R) is a structured tool designed to assess what an individual knows and believes about socio-sexual topics, including bodies, intimacy, relationships, contraception, sexual health and healthy socio-sexual boundaries. It is widely used with persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities to identify both knowledge strengths and gaps.
Why it’s used
The SSKAAT-R provides a structured snapshot of understanding and attitudes, helping support teams design targeted, respectful education and safety planning.
What it supports
Identification of socio-sexual knowledge gaps
Respectful boundary awareness planning
Tailored sexuality education content
Support planning that reduces vulnerability and misunderstanding
Best for
Diversion and education planning
Behaviour support and prevention frameworks
Supported living and community participation education
Key outcome
A practical, strengths-based profile of socio-sexual understanding that guides respectful supports, promotes safer choices, and informs education without making predictive or diagnostic claims.
Verbal Informed Sexual Consent & Communication Assessment
What it does
The Verbal Informed Sexual Consent Assessment Tool (VISCAT) is a structured assessment designed to help clarify an individual’s ability to understand, process, and communicate about consent, sexual knowledge, boundaries, and related social information. Developed for use with persons whose communication or cognitive processing may be limited.
Why it’s used
Supporting safe social and intimate engagement requires more than guessing understanding; VISCAT provides a structured way to explore comprehension of verbal consent concepts and relevant life experiences.
What it supports
Clarifies verbal comprehension and expression related to consent
Identifies knowledge gaps about socio-sexual topics
Guides tailored education and safety planning
Informs supports that respect autonomy and reduce vulnerability
Best for
Diversion and education planning
Supported living and community participation supports
Consent-related education
Key outcome
A practical profile of how an individual understands and can communicate about consent and related socio-sexual topics, learning opportunities, and safety planning.

Functional Assessment of Behaviour (FAB)
A Functional Assessment of Behaviour is a structured, non-clinical process used to identify the drivers and functions of challenging behaviour within real-world environments. The assessment examines how triggers, environmental demands, communication capacity, stress responses, and reinforcement patterns interact to produce escalation. The focus is not on diagnosis or intent, but on understanding what the behaviour achieves for the individual—such as avoidance of overwhelm, regulation, safety, or unmet support needs.
In IDD and justice-adjacent contexts, Functional Behavioural Assessment supports proportionate system responses by clarifying predictable patterns, points of early intervention, and conditions that increase or reduce risk. Findings inform practical prevention strategies, staff guidance, environmental adjustments, and individualized safety and support planning for shared living and community settings. This assessment is used to reduce crisis, limit unnecessary system escalation, and align expectations and supports in a manner that promotes stability, dignity, and community safety.
