Overview
When children reach school-age — three-years-old to young adulthood — they may be eligible for Advocates ABA Home and Community Services. Our supplemental educational and consultative services are based on the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).
Advocates partners with families, school and daycare staff, and other involved community members to develop goals and create individualized treatment plans. Each child is assessed individually and each treatment plan is geared toward the child’s needs. Services occur in the child’s home, school, or community.
When these vital services are delivered in the home, they can serve as an alternative for families who are contemplating residential placement. When delivered at school, our consultative services can help address a variety of needs and facilitate the child’s inclusion and participation in the classroom.
