BALANCE Parent Engagement
BALANCE is an early intervention program developed by Dr. Kelsey Ruppel and Dr. Greg Hanley of FTF Behavioral Consulting, and is based on many years of in-depth research. It is designed for children with ASD with emerging problem behaviors, and ideally suited to fill the gap for young children who have recently been diagnosed with ASD but who haven’t started yet or have just started receiving therapy.
The BALANCE program is designed to be implemented by parents in a home setting and supervised by a BCBA. It has been fully integrated with the Hi Rasmus platform, so that it is easy and streamlined to use for both parents, RBTs and BCBAs. By using the Hi Rasmus platform, BCBAs can supervise the program both live, remotely and asynchronously using next-generation video recording and data collection technology.
Parent training can be a challenge, marked by hectic schedules and low engagement.

Did you know?
Research shows that children with behavioral challenges have greater success in behavioral programs when their caretakers participate in the process (Anan et al 2008, Barnard et al., 1977, Brookman-Frazee and Koegel 2004, Koegel et al. 1996).
