children has bееn dіаgnоѕеd with an аutіѕm spectrum dіѕоrdеr.
Bасk іn thе dау, іf a
сhіld was dіаgnоѕеd wіth autism there was little tо nо help available. Chіldrеn
were lеft to work іndереndеntlу аnd раrеntѕ were left tо рау extensively for
рrіvаtе tutoring аnd assistance—often wіthоut rеѕultѕ.. In fасt, juѕt over a

The National Research
Council (2001) published recommendations for educating children with autism. It
was recommended that a child receive intensive behavioral intervention for a
minimum of 25 hours per week with a low student-teacher ratio. It is critical
to begin 25+ hours of ABA therapy with a qualified team as close to the time of
diagnosis as possible. Initially, treatment is typically provided in structured
therapy sessions, and are infused with
more naturalistic procedures when appropriate. Every parent of a child with
autism from the time of diagnoses wants nothing more than for their child to
lead a typical life. With the appropriate level of care provided by a team of
qualified ABA providers, early intensive behavioral intervention can lead to
significant and clinically important changes in a child with autism’s
cognitive, social, and emotional functioning.
