THE ELIJA SCHOOL OUTREACH PROGRAM CONSISTS OF THE FOLLOWING:

Supervision and Consultation

The ELIJA School Outreach  Supervisors meet regularly with families to devise goals and create individualized curriculum for home and/or school which address the management of behaviors, provide carry-over of skills learned at the school to the home and foster independence both in the home and in community settings. The ELIJA School Outreach Supervisors regularly attend IEP meetings and help the IEP committee develop appropriate goals and recommendations of services for each learner.

Direct 1:1 ABA Instruction

The ELIJA School Outreach Therapists provide direct instruction in the home and shadow learners at school and in the community utilizing the principles of ABA. The ELIJA School therapists receive ongoing comprehensive training in the most effective, scientifically-validated educational and treatment options available.

Parent Training

The ELIJA School outreach staff provide family training to address challenging behaviors in the home and community settings.

Professional Development and Workshops

The ELIJA School Outreach Supervisors provide trainings and conduct workshops serving school districts, schools and other organizations seeking training in ABA techniques and behavioral intervention plans. We also participate in local and national conferences to help disseminate valuable information about treatment options with other organizations that serve individuals with Autism.

Distance Consultation

The ELIJA School Outreach Supervisors travel to families outside the immediate area served by the ELIJA School to provide on-site supervision and training in ABA and to aid in the development and implementation of treatment plans. The frequency of on-site supervision is determined in consultation with the families and is supplemented with frequent phone consultations.

 

Advocacy and Referral

The ELIJA School assists families in their efforts to advocate for appropriate services for their children with Autism. In addition, the ELIJA School can provide information on, and referrals to a wealth of resources helpful to individuals with Autism and their families.
