Why Use ABA For Autism?
If your child has received a diagnosis on the autism spectrum, you are probably bewildered about where to turn for help. There are so many service providers out there claiming that their autism treatment is the best and only way to go. The amount information on the Internet alone is overwhelming. What can a parent do? At Coast Behaviour Analysts, we look at it this way: when people have serious health issues, they turn to the medical establishment. The medical establishment uses scientific methods and pours billions of dollars into scientific research. This is because SCIENCE WORKS and so medical treatments work. Of course, not all medical treatments are perfect, but a scientific model makes it possible to evaluate and constantly refine treatments. So, when it comes to interventions for autism, Coast Behaviour Analysts turn to science. And science consistently says that Interventions using Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) is the way to go for children with autism and related disorders.
