Beyond the Bell is an after-school social skills program that empowers children with autism by enhancing school readiness in a supportive community setting
Jamie N: I think it’s going to be more about application so ABA traditionally is like a one-to-one and so the beyond the bell program is more group based and so I think it’ll give my child specifically the opportunity to apply a lot of the things he’s been in one-to-one with less prompting and so that he can get acclimated to going in the classroom at school and being able to apply everything we’ve learned in therapy in the classroom so this program will give him an opportunity to kind of practice those skills
Jamie N: I’m excited for that he said it’s great and I symbolize it so great and he said well because I have a schedule so kids on the Spectrum thrive on the schedule so he loved that it was called um he called it an after-school program he thought that that was kind of a cool name so I think for him I it felt similar to school so it’ll make it even easier for him to apply what he’s learned here when he goes back into the classroom.
