Employment Experience: |
|
Since 2001, I have been the Behavior Coordinator for the Penticton Child Development Centre in Penticton, BC. My responsibilities include supervising the Autism Treatment Service program, including staff and parent training; and creating individualized programs for pre-school and school-aged children. From 1991 to 2001 I was employed by the Society for the Treatment of Autism in Calgary, Alberta. My responsibilities with the Society included (a) providing direct intervention services as a behavior interventionist for children over 6; (b) providing early intervention therapy for preschool-aged children; and (c) designing and implementing behavior programs for children in a variety of environments. I also supervised the early intervention program (I was the EI program classroom supervisor), which provided services to preschool children with autism and related disorders. |

Services are provided in a variety of environments as identified by the family. |
