We have been fortunate to raise $5791 from 92 donors. On April 25th, 2015 we received transfer of $5244.90 from Global Giving.
$1167 have been spend to translate from English into Russian the 351 page book - A Work in Progress: Behavior Management Strategies & A Curriculum for Intensive Behavioral Treatment of Autism
“A great collection of ideas and programs building skills as well as strategies for dealing with challenging behaviors. It is a comprehensive guide that is presented in user-friendly language. A valuable resource for parents and professionals working with children with autism.”
-Joanne Gerenser, Executive Director of Eden II Programs

Based on this book and experience of our trainer and therapists, we have developed 30 hour Parental Training covering following topics: Introduction to Autism, Principles of ABA (Applied Behavioral Analysis), Problem Behavior, Toilet Training, PECS (Picture Exchange Communication System) Training, Main curriculum programs for children with autism, ABLLS (Assessment of Basic Learning and Language Skills) Training
Training was developed by Registred Behavioral Therapists - graduates of Psychology Department of AUCA
We have chosen first group of 14 parents who started to receive Parental Training on June 3, 2015 and conducted five three hour sessions. In upcoming month we are planning upon completion of training start testing children and writing individualized intervention program for every child.
Also, after assesment every child will be given individualized necessary set of teaching aids and games. There will be supervised sessions of therapy with the child, knowledge obtained during the training will be properly applied and implemented. Three months after the end of the training the children will be evaluated again to measure a progress.
