What skills can be taught using ABA?
ABA programs focus on the development of comprehensive skills including language skills, social skills, play or leisure skills, motor skills, academic skills, and self help skills. Language skills are critical for independent functioning, cognitive growth, and social development, and are a key component in the FCPS ABA/VB program. Social, play, and leisure skills are also important and enhance a child’s quality of life. Self help skills build independence and academic skills help a child access the general education curriculum.
