Story Behind the Curve

  • The transportation graph represents the number of clients in our program who are transported to and/or from school by an SBAP staff and the percentage of clients who are transported for community programming or vocational site access.
  • Due to maladaptive behaviors, many students supported are unable to ride the school bus or in the family vehicle safely; this presents a hardship to schools and families.
  • Partnership with the School-Based Autism Program allows access to safe and consistent transportation as well as programming specific to the transportation environment.
  • 53% – 82% of students supported by SBAP over the course of the 2018 – 2019 school year have been able to access their local community during the school day for generalization of skills, social support, public safety goals, job training, and other resources with the support of transportation.

What Works

  • Strong partnerships between Supervisory Unions/School Districts and NCSS to determine appropriate level of student support.
  • Conduct assessments to support the development of evidence-based interventions and treatment.
  • Collaborate closely with client’s families and other treatment team members to coordinate services across multiple providers in multiple settings. 
  • School-Based Autism Program utilizes a data centered approach to provide recommendations for programming and report out on progress of individual student goals to school teams.
  • 1:1 social, emotional and behavior support allows for access to individualized education (including academic modification and support, community exposure, social inclusion, and daily living skills).
  • Highly trained staff skilled in the areas of Autism and other Neurodevelopmental Disorders, Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and collaborative approaches to student support.
  • Staff enrolled in graduate coursework in ABA and continued professional development support the client in accessing the best quality services possible and help in reaching their goals.

 

Action Plan

  • Continue to build capacity to increase transitions back to school without 1:1 support from NCSS for those students that this is deemed appropriate. This can be achieved by continuing to provide trainings and consultative support for school staff.
  • Continue to educate the community as to the scope of services provided beyond students diagnosed with Autism.
  • Continued collaboration with schools to build internal capacity and provide consultation to support clients outside of the BI model
