Early and clear engagement with children with autism can greatly improve their developmental potential and long-term outcome. Our program begins the process of concept-building through structured trials embedded in engaging play activities. The steps and materials used in the program will be adapted continuously to suit each child's interests, strengths, learning level and abilities. Ongoing support with visuals and modified materials will increase the child’s level of comprehension and help foster emotional regulation. A strong focus on skill transfer and generalization, will ensure that the child feels confident with different people and in various environments. At the same time, we will address the root cause of the challenging behaviors, by enhancing the child’s comprehension level and helping them overcome their sensitivities. Recommendations and objectives are updated based on data and AAPT Curriculum.
Input from the primary caregiver is essential for the initial assessment and the customization of the child's program. Parents receive the same educational and training support as the support workers and are encouraged to participate in the program's implementation, monitoring, and generalization, depending on their availability and interest. They are introduced to therapeutic and educational strategies tailored to their child's needs. By becoming actively involved, parents gain a deeper understanding of their child’s unique strengths, feel more confident in managing the home program, and are better equipped to advocate for their child's learning needs at school.
Additionally, it is important for parents to know that I, Saima Ijaz, am not currently listed on the RASP List.
Designing home-based program plans for children with autism spectrum disorder in primary and secondary school can be a crucial component of their development. Following an AAPT assessment, the program focuses on teaching academic skills, receptive and expressive language, coping and adaptive life skills to meet specific daily living, communication, social, and educational objectives. These goals are carefully crafted to align with the child's Individualized Education Program (IEP), promoting confidence and success within the school environment.
