When a child is diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), navigating the path forward can feel overwhelming. It’s natural to have questions, concerns, and uncertainties about how to best support your child’s development. One of the most effective approaches available for young children with ASD is Early Intensive Behavioral Intervention (EIBI).
Early Intensive Behavioral Intervention (EIBI) is a well-researched, evidence-based practice of providing Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) services for children in the early years of their lives. EIBI has been researched as an integral aspect of early programming for children who have a diagnosis of ASD. Research has indicated that EIBI treatment contributes to gains in development including social skills, behavior and communication. It is supported by research that intensive applied behavior analysis (ABA) services lead to the best outcomes for most children who have a diagnosis of ASD.
It’s important to emphasize that ABA is not a one-size-fits-all approach. At Key Autism Services, we recognize the unique strengths, needs, and preferences of each child and tailor our interventions accordingly. Our team of highly trained behavior analysts and therapists work closely with families to develop personalized treatment plans that address specific goals and objectives.
Key Autism Services’ EIBI program strives to meet the clinically recommended hours for direct ABA services. Most of our EIBI clients receive 20-40 hours per week of ABA in their home, daycare or in Key Autism Services clinics. Weekly parent education and training is another component to the EIBI treatment package at Key Autism Services. When implemented early in a child’s life, ABA can have profound and lasting effects on their development, particularly in crucial areas such as communication, daily living skills, and social skills.
In conclusion, ABA early intervention offers immense promise for children with ASD, paving the way for future success in communication, daily living skills, and social skills. If you’re considering ABA therapy for your child, we invite you to reach out to us at Key Autism Services. Together, we can unlock your child’s potential and empower them to thrive.
