What are Parent Support and Training services?
Parent Support and training services promote the engagement and active participation of family members in all aspects of the treatment process. Support and training is provided to family members to increase their ability to provide a safe and supportive environment in the home and community for the child. This involves assisting the family in acquiring the knowledge and skills necessary to understand and address the specific needs of the child in relation to autism spectrum disorder and related treatments. Parent Support training can be provided on a one to one basis or in a group setting.
