| Desc | APPLIED BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS (ABA) SERVICES, THE ACADEMY. As part of our commitment for individuals with autism to reach their fullest potential and in broadening the community of skilled educators, service providers, and family members, the Academy, a training institute in Seal Beach, CA, was committed to progressing the field of ABA and ASD by promoting expertise in the application of behavioral approaches. The Academy offered 2-year fellowships to post-baccalaureates, graduates, and post-graduates. Through its Academy, APF offered direct line services for children diagnosed with autism. Due to trained staff shortages when the fellowships ended in August 2021, APF paused the Academy to allow our Research and Training Team to focus on research and credentialing. | Desc |

This program supports APFs mission of identifying effective methodology to improve behavioral treatment of individuals diagnosed with ASD through research and training. APF established the PBAAC to meet this mission.Our extensive research shows when ABA is implemented with a high degree of quality, integrity, and compassion - the outcomes are life changing.

Effective high quality intervention - and the PBAAC - require trained interventionists to adapt treatment minute by minute. |
