— Happy Family
Every child with Autism is unique and we will provide both them and their family with an individualized program, delivered with care that is compassionate, excellent, and employs the research-based methodologies of Applied Behavior Analysis. This treatment shall encompass every member of the family unit allowing each child to reach his or her full potential.
There is hope for every child! Our team of therapists at Prism Autism Services want to help your child succeed. Our individualized programs encourage family involvement and are designed and based on the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). We use naturalistic teaching strategies to focus on age appropriate areas of development including behavior, social skills, and self-help. The purpose of our approach is to foster competency in the individual’s ability and to generalize skills to the natural environments of home, school, and the community.
Every family affected by Autism will have an understanding of what effective, quality services consist of and will have access to those services. It will be understood that Applied Behavior Analysis is the treatment of choice and collaboration with a multi-disciplinary team (such as Speech and Occupational Therapists) for a consistent approach is key to improving the lives of individuals with Autism. Through these services, children with Autism will have more opportunities to participate in their communities and lead a more fulfilling life.
