An Intensive early intervention program is one of the keys in achieving the best possible outcomes for children with ASD. However, the term “intensive” can be ambiguous. What is the meaning of the term “intensive”? How much time is required for an intervention program to be considered truly intensive and maximally effective? Is 3 hours per day or 15 hours per week a sufficient amount of dedicated, high-quality intervention time?
On November 22, Dr. David Fischer, an AP consultant, will share insights on the critical importance of intensive intervention for children with ASD on AP’s YouTube channel. He will also discuss the relationship between the level of intervention intensity and the best possible outcomes for these children.
