FL Lee County Public Schools to Approve ABA-Applied Behavior Analysis
We are petitioning to the State US Congress to mandate the Lee County Public Schools System to use ABA teaching for all children under the ESE classrooms (starting at age 3). ABA is the only scientific based proven effective method to teach ALL children, specially those under Autism Spectrum and all other related disorders. ***Early intervention is key to success for our children, ABA provides infinite hope specially during early ages***
Why is this important?
***Early intervention is key to success for our children, ABA provides infinite hope when done in early ages***
When my daughter was diagnosed with Autism, at age 2.5, no one said that ABA was the ONLY effective method to treat my daughter's severed language/speech delay, and other symptoms of autism such social delay and stereotyped behaviors. We were pushed to sent her to a public school (ESE class) starting her 3rd birthday. She was there for 2 years, made no progress but regression into severe autism and challenging behaviors.
After that I found that ABA was the only hope, and she recovered her language in about 6 mounts from intensive ABA therapy. Later I learned that most states provide free appropriate public education using ABA to help children, like my child, to make progress to have a functional live later on. This aims to inclusion, which will help the school system to save so much money down the road.
We are petitioning our legislators and governors to help us to have ALL of our children receive the fair free public education including ABA teaching for ESE students, not to be an option, but to be mandate for all schools in Lee County, FL, so all children could benefit of what is science based most effective technique for developmental delays.
Autism Spectrum Disorders is rapidly becoming the most often diagnosed childhood disorder. Applied Behavior Analysis, a branch of psychology rooted in the application of science to the study of human behavior, is a special therapy that has been shown to be quite effective in reducing the impact of autism spectrum disorders.
