Over the years we have met some very committed families who want to be educated and trained in ABA methods so they can implement programs throughout the day. Therefore, we developed personalized consultation packages. Families can choose from a variety of options to design an autism consultancy package that fits their child's and family's needs.
Outcomes of the In-Home Consultation Packages include:
• Ability for family members to implement an ABA program in the home and community to increase socially significant (desirable) behaviors
• Collaborate more effectively with current therapists and professionals
• Increase desired behaviors, such as communication, playing, responding, and self-help skills
• Decrease undesired / challenging behaviors, such as hitting, biting, spitting and screaming
• Give families research-based strategies to analyze behaviors and react appropriately to new behaviors
• Ability to take basic data and make data-driven decisions about behavior change
• Increase in family consistency when interacting with child with autism
• Ability to write measurable academic, social, and behavioral goals in collaboration with schools and care centers
• Reported reduction in family anxiety and stress
At Autism G.E.A.R.S., our programs work with the entire family in order to maximize benefits for the child and family as a whole, and families must commit to being hands-on throughout. Over the years we have researched the types of program variables that families prefer and from these results have developed a range of pre-designed programs.
The full on-site programs are split into 5 sections:
1) On-site Introduction to ABA
2) On-site Consulting
3) On-site Training
4) On-site Implementation
5) On-going Remote Consulting and Progress
5a) Remote Training (Optional)
