ABA and Applications to Promote Competence in Older Individuals with Autism
Presented by Dr. Peter Gerhardt, President & Chair, Scientific Council, Organization for Autism Research

Despite a rapidly growing body of knowledge regarding effective, behavioral analytic intervention with school age children with autism, adult outcome studies indicate that the majority of individuals graduate to lives of limited independence and community engagement. This presentation will provide a brief overview of some of the more relevant challenges to effective intervention with older individuals and offer recommendations toward improving outcomes utilizing interventions based upon the principles of applied behavior analysis. Space is limited to 20. PLEASE RSVP here
