Creating New Connections, LLC helps individuals with autism spectrum disorder create meaningful interactions with the world 

Mission

Our mission is to improve the lives of individuals with ASD and their families by increasing awareness and education. We believe individuals on the autism spectrum deserve to be (and can be!) better understood and supported in their homes, schools, and in the community. We aim to bring attention to the unique strengths and challenges of those with ASD and to share how our lives have been enriched through our experiences teaching individuals with ASD. We find great value in learning to see and experience life in ways that are considered different from the "norm."

About Applied Behavior Analysis

The field of applied behavior analysis (ABA) includes a range of procedures and techniques that have been shown to be effective in changing behavior. One application of ABA is an intervention approach for individuals with autism spectrum disorders consisting of a data-driven system of teaching that involves breaking down skills into their component parts and using prompting and reinforcement to increase desirable behaviors and decrease challenging behaviors. ABA involves the application of the principles of behavior with the goal of increasing socially significant behaviors such as communication, social skills, and adaptive living skills e.g., self-care, toileting, and gross/fine motor skills.
