Programming Assessments
We at Ohana IBI/ABA accept both private and government-funded families of children aged 18 months to18 years​, with or without a medical diagnosis. The programming assessment takes 1-2 hours and is completed by a Supervised Senior Therapist in your child's home, with both your child and parent or guardian present. One of several possible programming assessments are conducted at the supervised senior therapists' discretion. We will assess what level your child is at, what areas need to be worked on, the recommended number of hours of therapy as well as your specific goals.
Once the programming assessment is completed, we will prepare the startup programming to be used during your child's ABA sessions, set up your child's team, and pair them with a supervised instructor therapist(s).
