In this discussion area, please feel free to share your experience in implementing A.B.A. programs in the school system. We would particularly like to hear from those parents who converted their school teams to A.B.A. We’d like to hear the nightmares as well as the success stories.

Any insight that can be shared by school-based special education assistants to help parents would also be very meaningful.

Hello everyone,

It is September and here is the monthly newsletter from the Association for Science in Autism Treatment – ASAT.

https://mailchi.mp/asatonline/science-in-autism-treatment_2019_09b?e=aa6469092a

This newsletter features an interview with Jane McCready, campaign founder for ABAAccess for All in the UK.

Jane’s story, the struggle to access funding, and helping other families advocate for their child are parallels to many of the stories our readership share.  With focus and persistence, Moms and Dads around the world are securing autism treatment dollars for their children, and paving the way for others to receive science-based ABA treatment.

Right now, Canada has zero autism treatment covered under Medicare.  In Canada, we need Medicare for Autism Now.

Another article, “Preparing Adults with Autism for Employment Success” written by Autism New Jersey and reprinted with permission, a must-read for students transitioning from High School to adult life where having employment is a goal.

The Association for Science in Autism Treatment (ASAT) is a small, non-profit, organization with a single part time position and a 100% volunteer Board.  Dr. Sabrina Freeman, founder of FEATBC, is a Board Member.
