| Abstract: Recognized as one of the top state-of-the-art treatments for autism in the United States, the innovative Pivotal Response Treatment uses natural learning opportunities to target and modify key behaviors in children with autism, leading to widespread positive effects on communication, behavior, and social skills. Dr. Lynn Koegel will provide an overview and description of this proven approach, which is the product of 20 years of research from Robert and Lynn Koegel, co-founders of the renowned Koegel Autism Research Center at the University of California, Santa Barbara. |
