ABA Teaching Homes:

If you are a parent of an older child/young adult with autism who has been the recipient of ABA intervention and still presents with significantly challenging behavior, you may be interested in an ABA teaching home model. We are pleased to provide an information session on the Teaching home. In general the presentation will cover the following:
1. Description of the ABA Teaching home
– An ABA teaching home is a residential program based on the scientific principles and methods of ABA and staffed at a level that can and has truly implemented quality treatment.
2. How it got started
3. The model: Behavioral Services of Tennessee
4. What services it provides:
– Teaching homes have been in existence for 15+ years and have demonstrated both their effectiveness and client/family satisfaction.
5. What type of population we serve
– Teaching homes can be temporary placements to reduce problematic behavior or long-term placements for individuals who require a high level of ongoing care.
6. Why ABA Teaching homes are different from current residential options
– Discuss management hierarchy and level of supervision provided
– Treatment package based on principles of behaviorism and applied behavior analysis
– Staff training and evaluation
– Policies and procedures
7. Success of the home thus far and future opportunities
– Documented client success
– Documented family approval and satisfaction
– Client now integrated in community

Come to an informational evening on ABA teaching homes presented by FEAT BC and the Autism Society of BC. Presenters: Nate Searle, MS, Theresa Tournemille, (MS Candidate), and Dr. Glen Davies.
