What does a typical home session look like?
Home sessions are typically scheduled for 2 or more hours in duration. A team of 2-4 direct service staff and 1 supervisor will be assigned to your child’s program. This team approach allows for generalization of the child’s skills across people and minimizes cancellation of sessions due to staff illness or unavailability. Staff work with the child and family to decrease the child’s maladaptive behaviors and increase appropriate behaviors and functional skills during all activities. Based on the child’s individualized needs and goals, portions of every session may consist of structured teaching as well as play-based teaching strategies. Staff also incorporate skill building into naturally occurring activities (e.g. snack, toileting, outside play) within each child’s sessions. Daily data will be collected during each session to determine the child’s progress in meeting goals and objectives.
