This group was created to help aid the transition into ABA therapy for families who recently received an autism diagnosis or have not had previous experience with this therapy. Many parents have expressed to us that this is overwhelming, and we want to have resources available to make this easier. Content will review the core concepts of applied behavior analysis and provide general recommendations for strategies that could be effective for you and your child.
