Information:

ABA providers encounter a variety of challenges when providing both in home and clinic based services. The distinction between these two    formats will provide a framework for our discussion, comprising topics such as: overcoming barriers to effective therapy, best practices for home visits, scheduling and facilitating parent engagement, and enhancing the relevance of therapeutic goals for older clients in preparation for their transition out of ABA therapy services.
