THE AUTISM CLINIC AT HOPE

The Autism Clinic at Hope is committed to giving children with autism spectrum
disorder professional care and attention so that they can soar. We know that the
best caregivers are families and we offer the training, advice and support that
parents and other family members need.

Our ABA intervention services hit the core of helping children with autism by
following one simple rule: every child is unique, and we help them to best reflect
those social needs. Through our Preschool ABA program, children learn by playing
with their peers and with small group activities. Some learn to communicate by
exchanging pictures or using an iPad. Others expand their verbal skills. We plan
activities that encourage the children to interact – making dirt pudding, erupting
baking soda volcanoes, playing water balloon T-Ball. At the elementary school level,
The Autism Clinic offers the opportunity to practice attending and participating in
age-appropriate lessons while learning from others through board games,
dramatic play and conversation activities.
