Each learner will have individualized goals specific to their needs that are measured at each session.

2 caregiver meetings: 1 pre-group and 1 post-group to discuss progress

We will review a child centered approach that describes all necessary components to be successful.

This workshop provides an opportunity to learn Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) strategies to teach your child play skills that increase and promote language.
