Spring into Action

Spring into Action programs are early education and intervention services for children.  The most current evidence-based practices are used to make choices about the methods integrated into Spring into Action programs. Interventions are designed to address social communication, language, play, and pre-academic skills. Parent involvement is key to the success of early education and intervention services.

Spring into Action:  Together

Spring into Action: Together is a caregiver-implemented early intervention program for children 18 months to 4 years, 11 months of age. The program is designed to support communication, social engagement, and play skills.  Caregivers will learn valuable strategies to support their child’s learning and growth while participating in fun and structured classroom-based activities.

Spring into Action: Early Intensive Behavior Intervention (EIBI) Classroom

This program is an early intervention service for children up to age 7 years, 11 months. The Spring into Action: Early Intervention program will specifically use a Comprehensive Behavioral Treatment for Young Children (CBTYC). Key components to CBTYC are:

(2) measurement to assess the effectiveness of the program
(3) services provided across a variety of settings
(4) low student-to-teacher ratios
(5) focus on the core symptoms of autism

RUBI: Parent Training

Many children with autism exhibit behavioral problems, including tantrums, noncompliance, aggression, and self-injury. These behaviors may not only hinder the individual’s ability to learn but may also amplify caregiver stress. The RUBI Autism Network parent training program teaches parents to use applied behavior analysis techniques to manage their child’s challenging behaviors.

Individual and group counseling services are specifically designed to address issues with depressive symptoms, anxiety, social isolation, and other comorbid diagnoses. The main focus is to improve the overall quality of life and increase community participation.
