Behavior Solutions will begin providing implementation (intensive ABA) and
behavior assistant services in January, 2008.
Behavior assistants will
provide 1:1 intensive teaching (ABA), assistance in carrying out a behavior
plan at home, school or community location, and provision of training to
caregivers/staff on use of the behavior plan. The service will provide
clients with additional learning opportunities and provide relief for
caregivers/staff needing additional supports managing behaviors between
consultant visits.
Behavior Assistants will work under the direction and supervision of one of
our Behavior Consultants. Behavior Solutions is a provider with First Steps,
Department of Mental Health DD Home and Community based waivers, Eastern
Missouri Autism Project (EMAP), private pay, and some insurances. Funding
may also be available through grants from the St. Charles Developmental
Disabilities Board and Autism Speaks that Behavior Solutions has been
awarded.
