The foundation of all ABA services in Family Foundation Center is a comprehensive assessment that helps identify treatment objectives and develop a personalized treatment plan for each participant. As parents/guardians, your active involvement may be requested in gathering information or data during the assessment process. We evaluate their current performance levels and determine the most effective instructional strategies and interventions for their skill enhancement. On the other hand, if the focus is on reducing ongoing problem behaviors, we conduct a functional assessment and functional analysis activities such as interviews, checklists, and direct observations. By using a combination of assessment strategies tailored to each participant’s needs, we obtain critical information essential for the development of effective treatment procedures.
Once the assessment is complete, our team will craft a treatment plan that aligns with the participant’s specific requirements and goals. This plan will be submitted to the relevant funding entities for approval. Although the authorization process may take up to 30-45 business days, we do everything possible to expedite it. Before initiating services, we ensure that parents/guardians thoroughly review the treatment plan. Your consent to the proposed treatment will be requested through a signature, signifying that you are in agreement with the outlined approach.
