Honestly, I think it is best if someone else at least starts you on the right path if you can. I think it's tough to know where to begin. The ABLLS-R is a tracking tool you use to assess their skills and then the programs are based on the areas that need to be filled in. Are you thinking VB/ABA or more Lovaas style?
Difflearn www.difflearn.com/ has some great resources for starting up programs.
The Maurice books you have are also good to read.
Hi everyone. I am currently in the process of starting VB/ABA program for my HFA son. Can someone guide me what I needed to do IF I wanted to do this by myself? I understand that things might be a bit different here in Australia, still it can't hurt to know the basics. (Like what is ABLLS-R?????)
I have heard people say that they write their own programs and just hire the therapists. Can this be done? I am not saying that I am qualified to do that but I am interested in knowing whether its possible to do that or not. My son is pretty high functioning and I am thinking of 10-12 hours per week.
I would really appreciate it if someone can guide me in the right direction. I have the books 'let me hear your voice' and 'behavioural intervention' but haven't started reading them. Anything else I need to buy to get started? Thanks
Mary
