Adults deserve ABA that preserves dignity, centers autonomy, and produces meaningful, generalizable outcomes across home, work, and community. This course examines common gaps in child-modeled service delivery when working with adults and replaces them with practical, function-based strategies for effective Adult Intervention in ABA. Participants will analyze antecedent interventions (environmental arrangements, choice, and visual supports), implement Functional Communication Training to build autonomy (e.g., mands for breaks/help/space), and apply culturally responsive practices that reduce infantilization and shame. We'll also address representation, sexuality education, and U.S. systems barriers that often limit access after age 21, with guidance on when to collaborate or refer to appropriate resources. In Adult Intervention in ABA, you can expect real-world examples, templates you can use tomorrow, and a consistent emphasis on person-centered, identity-affirming practice.
