SUMMARY:Strategies for Helping Children with ASD: Exploring Various Applications of Behavioral Interventions - Virtual Conference
DESCRIPTION:Full Day Virtual Conference\nStrategies for Helping Children with ASD: Exploring Various Applications of Behavioral Interventions \nThursday\, March 23\, 2023\n7:50am – 3:15pm \nRegistration – $25.00\nContinuing Education Units Available – $15.00 \nThis conference is sponsored by The Summit Center and the Western New York Regional Center for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) for parents\, teachers\, therapists\, and other helping professionals. There continues to be considerable controversy regarding the best approach to ensure that autistic children are learning in school. Autism is a neurological disorder characterized by significant impairments in communication\, socialization\, and interests. These deficits mean that some learning readiness skills are absent. The field is associated with a great number of instructional / treatment movements to overcome these challenges\, but most have not been subjected to objective evaluation. At the same time\, evidence-based approaches\, are often rejected as too rigid and removed from the natural environment. However\, there are a broad range of empirically validated techniques that can be applied in many ways and conditions. This conference will present some of those approaches. \nDownload flyer for additional information including presenter bios\, abstract\, learning objectives\, and speaker disclosures. \nPresentation 1:  8:00 – 9:00 AM \nCultural Responsiveness in Professional Practice: A Commitment to Collective Empowerment\nPresented by Margaret Uwayo\, Ph.D.\, BCBA\nKalamazoo Academy for Behavioral & Academic Success (KABAS) and YWCA of Kalamazoo\, MI \nPresentation 2:  9:00 – 10:30 AM \nProgressive ABA with Individuals Diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder: Recent Advancements in Research and Clinical Practice\nPresented by Justin Leaf\, Ph.D.\, CPBA-AP\, BCBA-D\nAutism Partnership Foundation & Endicott College \nPresentation 3:  10:45 AM – 12:45 PM \nIncreasing Play Complexity in Young Children with Autism and Other Disabilities\nPresented by Erin Barton\, Ph.D.\, BCBA\, Associate Professor\nVanderbilt University\, Nashville\, TN \nPresentation 4:  1:00 PM – 3:15 PM \nPivotal Response Treatment (PRT) for Young Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder\nPresented by Danny Openden\, Ph.D.\, BCBA\nSouthwest Autism Research & Resource Center\, Phoenix\, AZ \nRegister for this conference at:\nhttps://nysrcasd.org/events/1077/registrations/new\nASHA\, BCBA\, CTLE\, OT/OTA\, PT/PTA\, PSY (Pending) CEUs will be available for a fee of $15.00 each.

SUMMARY:Nurtured Heart Approach - 4 Week Series - In-person workshop
DESCRIPTION:Four Week Parenting Series – Joe Clem MA\, LMFT\, BCBA\, Certified NHA Advanced Trainer\nThursdays\, March 23\, March 30\, April 13\, and April 20 from 5:30-8:00 pm \nAre you frustrated by behavior challenges that put your child in control of your home? Have your discipline methods stopped working? Do you want your children to have good morals\, be compassionate\, and be self-confident? \nThe Nurtured Heart Approach (NHA) is a language-based approach that can help you regain focus and power and rebuild the love you want in your home. NHA teaches us why our typical parenting methods don’t always work and can even make things worse. The magic rests in its ability to use language to build “inner wealth” and to make positive connections to those around us by focusing on what IS working\, at all times. \nYou will learn how to hold clear limits and consequences while you build positive connections. You will immediately FEEL the difference in your home\, and in time\, you\, your children and your family learn to flourish. \nThe approach is valid for all ages and types of relationships. It is effective for behaviorally and emotionally challenged children (ADHD\, ODD\, ASD\, Attachment\, etc.) as well as typically developing children. You will leave this series with clear techniques and strategies to face the behavioral challenges that brought you in. \nThe approach has much proven success in homes\, schools\, human service agencies and businesses all over the world. We look forward to seeing you Transform!! \nNo prior reading is required.  Childcare available for children age 4+ to those who register.\nRegister by email to info@parentnetworkwny.org or by phone at (716) 332-4170 or online at Nurtured Heart Approach – 4 Week Series – Parent Network of WNY (parentnetworkwny.org). \nClarence High School\, 9625 Main Street\, Clarence\, NY 14031  Families should park on the far east lot closest to the church. \nA light dinner will be served at 5:30 pm\, event running from 6 pm to 8 pm. \n*Certificate of completion available upon request*  \nREGISTER TODAY!
