Earlier this month, our Board Certified Behavior Analysts gathered at the New York State Applied Behavior Analysis Conference to advance their skills and knowledge in providing ethical, effective, and compassionate care. We then shared what we learned with our team of RBTs. Exciting things are already being put into practice, including success just today with steps toward accepting new foods for one of our clients.

The conference featured sessions on:
✅ Effective Supervision: Strategies to guide RBTs and graduate students toward professional growth.
✅ Safety Protocols: Enhancing interventions to support individuals prone to elopement.
✅ Expanding Food Repertoires: Promoting healthier, more diverse eating habits through evidence-based methods.
✅ Professional Collaboration: Strengthening partnerships with interdisciplinary teams for holistic care.
✅ Compassionate Care: Prioritizing empathy and respect in service delivery.

It is an exciting time as our eight graduates make the leap from Accelerate ABA to Kindergarten and first grade.🎓

We are so proud of all that each child has accomplished in our years together. So many significant milestones were met and exceeded. To a new chapter filled with hope, growth, and opportunities. We will miss them and their families greatly; we already do! 🫶🏻

ABA therapy is often thought of as one-to-one teaching, where a child works with one behavior technician. For some learners, this is the best arrangement in order to promote learning. As children build more advanced skills and approach school-age, it becomes important to incorporate opportunities to learn in a group setting.

Over the past months, some of our learners have been participating in a mock-classroom for part of their session. During this, they learned to rotate through math, literacy, and visual-perceptual learning stations and work independently at each station.

Now, the group is learning to attend to group lessons. The goal is to teach each child a new concept through different modalities including instruction at the table, hands on activities, and games. As you can see in the photos, these children and engaged and ready to learn the skills necessary to succeed in future settings.
