We are still recruiting for our safety skills study. If your child has an ASD diagnosis, is between the ages of 5-18, and has a tendency to wander away in public places, we can provide evidence-based strategies to help keep them safe @BrockUFOSS @AutismONT @BrockUResearch

“I doubt without ABA, I would be studying mathematics at University of Waterloo.” STOP. Read that again. Without #ABA...

#TodayInABA I had the pleasure of working with @KrystenSpottis1 to share research & clinical expertise related to best practice in AAC. Great questions & discusion with SLPs, BCBAs, educators who are all committed to helping clients live their best lives. Thank you @Geneva_Centre

Let me add to the stories: my OSAP got cut by 85%. I get 0 grants and the loan is less than $500. How is that any sort of financial help? @fordnation you are a monster. You are ruining young Ontarian’s futures by making a post secondary education impossible #osap #onpoli

@drkoudys @ShiriBartman Congratulations @ShiriBartman !!

#Applied_Behavior_Analysis has been at the forefront of successful outcomes in #ASD #treatment for several decades. Although not a magic cure, #ABA has been shown to be one of the most successful evidence-based treatments for autism." #autism https://t.co/67cXG8s0Gy

The convenience store selfies of the @OntarioPCParty MPPs are starting to creep me out a little, TBH. If only as much planning had gone into the autism program as went into the “sell beer everywhere” project 😔

Looking forward to talking about two of my favourite topics: ABA and augmentative/alternative communication. So grateful that the fabulous @KrystenSpottis1 will be joining me to share her expertise and recent research!

[Krysten Spottiswoo @KrystenSpottis1]

@drkoudys So happy to be joining you @drkoudys and for the opportunity to speak at this event!!

The resume of @drkoudys (psychologist, BCBA, researcher, professor) makes Expert Panelist seem like a huge understatement.
I’d quickly run out of characters describing her accomplishments, so see below.
Needless to say @ONTABA1 will be represented well.

6/8

I’ve been on twitter for like 8 years and there’s still nothing that has topped Earth Sandwich

[Kate Logue @kate_logue]

If this can get done in the USA, there is no reason it can't be done here! You want consultations @MacLeodLisa @fordnation , perhaps consult with New Mexico. #AutismDoesntEndAtFord #NeedsBasedFunding

[Julie Koudys @drkoudys]

Approx half of kids who received 40hrs/wk IBI achieve best outcomes. Only 2% of kids who received 10hrs/wk IBI achieve best outcomes. @fordnation plan = max 7hrs/wk (best case scenario). This plan will fail 98% of kids. #PausethePlan Plz consult experts to understand the research

[Julie Koudys @drkoudys]

@ShiriBartman What are @fordnation @MacLeodLisa afraid of? That the report WILL (absolutely) support regulation? If so, what’s the problem? Aren’t mechanisms to protect vulnerable children, teens, adults a priority? Isn’t protecting a $321mil tax payer investment worthwhile? #ReleaseTheReport

[Julie Koudys @drkoudys]

@KimTrudeauCraig Old OAP: ABA suprvsrs work with families to determine kid’s needs-some need SLP, some don’t, some need OT, some don’t. ABA+SLP+OT were integrated as needed. $ was targeted based on need. New @fordnation OAP doesn’t support intense ABA or multidisc work. NOT a choice. #PressPause

A reminder to wear black - teachers and students - as we return to school on Monday to show our disapproval of the $1.5 billion Doug Ford is robbing from public edu in Ont. We're all in this together - students, parents and teachers. #OntEdAnnouncement #osstf #OECTA #onted
