The Benefits of Early Intervention for Children Diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder

Early intervention is a commonly used term, but we often hear questions such as, “What is it?” and “What does it look like?” and “Who needs it?” In Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) terms, and for those diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, early intervention services can have a significant impact on a child’s ability to learn new skills and overcome challenges (during the brain’s most adaptable years, ages 1.5-5), which can support acclimation and individual successes in school and life. This presentation will cover the importance of early intervention strategies, how they’re utilized, and address some frequently asked questions.
