The Social ABCs program is an evidence-based Naturalistic Developmental Behavioural Intervention. This means we look for natural opportunities to develop skills and resolve challenging behaviours, like when your child is playing, participating in family routines or engaging in hobbies they enjoy. As your child’s primary caregiver, you are the expert.
Through this service, our ABA-trained staff will support you in this role, helping you learn strategies to motivate your child, build on their interests and make use of natural opportunities for your child to learn and develop.
Together, you and your child will work towards common goals like:
becoming more successful at home, school and the community
building communication skills
developing emotional regulation skills (both caregiver and child)
learning strategies to manage challenging behaviours
sharing positive emotion
learning strategies to encourage play
learning how to support social routine
learning strategies to practice caregiver self-care
