    I am posting on behalf of a family:

    ***** Therapists Wanted *****

    We are looking for therapists to work with our two-year-old daughter, in Surrey. She loves to play, is very bright and is a joy to work with. This position is of special interest to students interested in special education and/or psychology and is an exciting opportunity to join an ABA team right from the start!

    No experience is necessary (although experience is valued and pay will be commensurate with experience), as training will be provided by our Consultant, Liana Maione, BCBA and our Lead therapist. You must be playful, have a positive attitude, a willingness to learn, a high level of energy, good attention to detail and a desire to make a difference in the life of a child. You will work one-to-one with this little girl in two to three hour shifts and should be able to work at least 3 shifts per week, in addition to attending bi-weekly team meetings. Early afternoon sessions are currently available. You will be required to make a minimum of a one-year commitment.

    For more information, or to apply for this position, please reply to johalsandy@ymail.com with a description of your experience and resume. Thank you, we look forward to hearing from you!

    Hi everyone

    Last month Kathryn Theroux presented "ASD : The Birds and the Bees" for the ABA Support Network.

    Thank you again Kathryn for that informative and engaging presentation!

    During the presentation we:
    * Shared basic information about the sexual needs of individuals with ASD
    * Discussed what we can do/are doing to meet those needs
    * Discussed ways to replaced fear, uncertainty, and doubt with facts, resources, and recommendations

    Kathryn has generously forwarded me an electronic version of her powerpoint presentation for this topic. If anyone would like a copy please email me at dionec@shaw.ca

    I would also highly recommend all parents attend this presentation if Kathryn presents it again in the future.

    Cheers,
    Dione

    Third year UBC Psychology/English major seeking additional BI and/or swim instructor employment (May – August). Preferably in Vancouver area.

    Skills, abilities and work experiences:

    • has been working as a BI since Oct. 2009 for three families.
    • has completed the life guard and swim instructor certification (NLS & WSI) and has been doing therapy sessions with one ASD child in a pool.
    • has completed the line therapist workshop at Harmony House.
    • has a ten year old brother who was diagnosed in 2003 with ASD. Therefore, has experienced firsthand the benefits of ABA and early intervention.

    Annelise’s swim instructor and life guarding skills compliment her experiences working with children on the Autism spectrum. The Spring and Summer months are ideal times to integrate pool time into a home based program (i.e. working on behaviours at the same time as developing swimming abilities).

    Please contact Annelise at: annelisedowd@gmail.com
