Guest guest Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 We like Spectrum of Hope and then we needed something different. We ran our own home program using Son-Rise. Nothing is perfect for every child. In our home we needed different parts at different times. All the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Trina is right. We started RPM back in August of 2010, and then we decided to home school. We use RPM for academics and we have alwasy used ABA strategies for learning new skills like swallowing a pill or swimming under water or riding a bicycle(three-wheeled). ABA has alwasy been our mainstay for behavior. But were it not for RPM, my son might have missed out on academics. He was below K level back in Sept. of 2010, and now he has made up a lot of ground. He is between 3rd and 4th grade in reading and comprehension, as well as writing now. He is working 4th grade word problems in math. We have been blessed with a wonderful RPM tutor. Hope this helps you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Something that I love about Spectrum of Hope is that the director has a son with autism. All of her intention goes towards making sure that our kids have what they need. It's staffed with highly qualified/certified professionals also. I've never found such a nice balance of staff who truly understand the unique needs of the families they serve. All the best on your search. I always know once I meet people and then trust my instincts on these things. I'm sure different families are better met at different centers. We're all different. > > We like Spectrum of Hope and then we needed something different. We ran our own home program using Son-Rise. Nothing is perfect for every child.
