Hello,
I have started working in the Westman area doing Behavior Therapy for kids with Autism, I am also work with the Manitoba Association for Behavior Analysis. I'm curious how many parents in Brandon have children who have been diagnosed with Autism and what kind of support you are using in the area, if any. Also, those who have children with autism, are you familiar with Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) or other behavior therapies?
I am hoping to eventually bring more support to the Westman area for these children and their families and would like to know what you are finding beneficial right now.
It is estimated that 1 in 100 children will be diagnosed with autism, so many families are effected. If your child has been diagnosed, you are not alone.
