What is this program for?

The Targeted Program Intervention is designed to assess the underlying causes of specific challenges in your child and develop proactive strategies to address them while equipping parents with the necessary skills to manage these issues effectively.

Your child will receive a highly individualized Progressive ABA training plan, created by AP consultants. The process begins with an initial meeting between the consultant and parents to identify the most concerning challenge in managing your child’s behavior. From this discussion, the consultant will design outcome-driven training strategies focused on achieving tangible improvements in managing the specific problem. Following this, the consultant will provide coaching to parents on how to handle the problem at home or in the community.

Our goal is to reduce parental stress by addressing these specific challenges, empowering you to manage them more effectively.
