Upcoming FEAT of BC Senior Workshop:

If you would like to attend this workshop, I would highly advise you send in your registration asap as this workshop is close to full. I am awaiting an update on the numbers of registrations received and once I receive this update, we may close registration. If this is the case we will honor all registrations sent in before the date we close the workshop – meaning if you send your registration now, we will still allow you to register, even if we are technically full.

We look forward to seeing all of you at the workshop.

THERAPIST NEEDED! SOUTH DELTA

We are looking for a therapist to join our team. Our daughter Bronte is 7 years old and is in the first grade, working with an excellent TA. Bronte is excelling in language and reading, far ahead of her classmates, though she is still challenged in social situations and peer interaction. Our consultant is Lorelei Dake and she is exceptional.

Experience in ABA (Lovaas) therapy would be an asset, but is not required as training is provided. Anyone with an educational or psychology background would be suited for this position. As observation, trials and data-capture are crucial to the success of an ABA program, students in the "hard" sciences – who also work well with children – are encouraged to apply.

Must be reliable, enthusiastic, fun, energetic and willing to learn.

Call Cheryl or Jack at 778.238.1056
