What is School-Based ABA?

ABA therapy applies a scientific understanding of how behavior works to real situations. The goal is to increase behaviors that are helpful and decrease behaviors that are harmful or affect learning. Under the school-based ABA service model, each child receives one-on-one support from a trained Behavior Technician (also often referred to as a Special Education Classroom Aid, 1-1 Support, Behavior Interventionist, or Paraprofessional).
