Extended Day Program

Blossoming Minds is designed specifically to offer children with developmental disabilities year round, intensive instruction using scientifically based teaching techniques as well as typical peer role models. Each program is tailored to fit individual needs so that the child may acquire all the skills necessary to succeed in their natural environment. Onsite speech and OT services are also available.

Verbal Behavior Program

Upon completion of initial assessments that consist of VB-MAPP, ABLLS and FBA, an individualized program is developed consisting of one-to-one teaching from a Registered Behavior Technician. Ongoing supervision and monitoring as well as program updates are done by one of our behavior analysts weekly. Each program consists of goals focused on communication, social skills, play skills, appropriate behavior and generalization of these skills into the natural environment and with their care givers.

Natural Environment Teaching (NET)
