Parent training is offered to families in a variety of ways. All training provided by the Autism Programs are offered to families.
Specific parent training is offered through a home training program that is child specific and evidenced based. This program emphasizes teaching parents of young children with ASD how to best engage their child, increase their child’s ability to develop initial communication and to learn techniques of positive behavior supports. This training also brings together community based teams working with the family and teaches them as well so that the intervention will continue after the Autism Programs’ staff have left.
The training is provided statewide for children birth – 5. For more information contact, the Autism Programs at 272-1852.
