Judevine Autism Program at ECRH

The Judevine® Autism Program at ECRH

Note: For any of you parents who have already been trained by Judevine - ECRH, please visit our Talk Autism page and share your "testimonies" about our effectiveness.

The Judevine® Autism Program at East Central Regional Hospital (ECRH) uses the Judevine® model for training persons with autism. The Program also trains their families, caregivers, and professionals who work with those with autism. The Program got its name from the Judevine® Center for Autism, which is a nationally-recognized autism program in St. Louis, Missouri (founded in 1970).

The Judevine® model uses positive reinforcement and structured training sessions to help children and adults with autism and other developmental disabilities improve their skills and live more independently. Judevine® training is practical, hands-on, and competency-based.

Many training programs tell you what to do and a few show you what to do; but Judevine® combines both of these methods with coaching the parent, caregiver, or professional to actually apply the techniques with the child. To find out more about the Judevine® method, the Judevine® Center for Autism in St. Louis, MO, or the Judevine®  Autism Program at ECRH, click on any of the links to your left. Welcome and may God bless your search for information.

The Autism Workshop fee is $50 for parents and $100 for professionals. The Parent/Caregiver Training fee is on a sliding scale (based on income and family size) and ranges from $10 to $500. We are committed to serving families and no one will be turned away due to financial concerns.
