About the Presentation:

If you are waiting for a diagnosis or just starting up an ABA team, this event may be just for you! Join Kaitlan and Chauntel in learning about where to start at home by selecting meaningful and manageable goals that can be incorporated into everyday routines. As parents and caregivers are often the most involved in their child’s lives, small changes to these simple routines are a substantial way to support your child’s development during this waiting process.
