Nancy WaltonParticipant
Hi George,
Please provide your e-mail address and also your location. I recommend hiring people who live within 20 minutes of where you live.
Good luck
Nancy WaltonParticipantWanted by March or April
ABA tutor for 12 year old boy before and after school. Mon-Fri, 7:30-8:45 and then 2:30-varying times. We live in East White Rock. Training provided. Our tutors are supervised by Sharon Baxter. Please contact Nancy at 604-538-8021 or e-mail at w i k l o @ shaw.ca (without spaces). Thanks to any parents who can pass this along to your tutors.Nancy WaltonParticipantI would like to thank my ABA friends who understand who I am and what my family is all about. These friends give me support and advice that I could not get from my own relatives or non-ABA friends.
I would like to encourage more experienced parents to please attend the ABA Support Network small groups meetings and help our newer parents get started.
The more connected our community is, the more we can achieve for our children.
Thanks,
And have a happy New Year, 2011.Nancy WaltonParticipantExperienced therapist available in South Surrey or along King George Hwy or 152nd Ave Surrey (uses bus transportation):
Zach has been on my son's team for 2.5 years and is going to be available to take on more shifts after Christmas. Zach has over 500 hours experience with a 6 year old and a 12 year old under the supervision of two different consultants. He is very smart and fully understands the principles of ABA.
Zach is available during school hours now (as well as after school and weekends), but hopes to work for the Surrey School district by March. So he will have limited hours after that time.
However, he would make an excellent lead therapist to train up a new team.
For a references, e-mail Nancy at wiklo (at) shaw. ca and to contact Zach, e-mail martin_zach (at) hotmail .com.

Nancy WaltonParticipantHi Everyone,
Barbs suggestion of Penn State is another good idea. It also has a built in supervision component that ties theory to practice. I am replacing my old post as seen below. A simpler message:
YOU can help bring quality ABA to all of BC. Please fill out the survey mentioned below:
MCFD is circulating a survey to assist in the development of a new Outreach Program for Young Children with ASD. Directors of featbc and the ABA Support Network have discussed ideas for this program, based on input from parents we have assisted throughout the province. We feel that there are two very important things to put in place in BC and we would like parents and professionals to focus on these two goals when filling out the survey:
1) To give scholarships to 5 ABA therapists in BC to complete a Masters degree in ABA with a focus in autism at a university where clinical supervision is provided, with the proviso that these therapists return to work in the Interior BC, Northern BC or on Vancouver Island for 3 years.
2) To establish a Masters and Doctorate ABA training program that includes clinical supervision at a university in BC.
We strongly recommend you complete the survey (see details below) and suggest the above recommendations,
Two surveys are also available NOW through the Autism Community

If all students attended the same program (such as the CABAS program at Teachers College Columbia University in New York City), then they could support each other upon returning home, and provide training to further increase capacity.
2) To establish a Masters and Doctorate ABA training program that includes clinical supervision at a university in BC.
If you would like to see what CABAS program is, you can go to http://www.cabas.com. CABAS is a comprehensive ABA training program based on the principles of VERBAL BEHAVIOUR.
