Behavioral Services
Each student at APTS is supported by a Behavior Analyst/Specialist who is responsible for conducting various behavioral assessments (e.g., Preference Assessments, Functional Assessment Observations, Functional Assessment Interviews, etc.) in order to develop effective strategies for decreasing undesired behaviors and increasing desired replacement behaviors. Results from these assessments are then utilized to develop a comprehensive Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) for each student. Through daily data collection, as well as the input of each student’s collaborative team, the effectiveness of these plans is continuously evaluated and monitored. When students have demonstrated behavioral stability within the structured classroom setting, APTS strives to promote the generalization and maintenance of these skills to various domains (e.g., community settings, individuals, the home, etc.).
