FCT is a procedure that teaches individuals alternative and meaningful ways to communicate their needs, wants, and feelings in a more socially appropriate communicative response. 

It’s built on the understanding that challenging behaviors result from communication deficits.

NET is a more natural form of utilizing ABA. Everyday objects and toys are used as teaching materials, and the rewards for correct responses are natural. 

Learning is inserted in activities, games, and play. The child's motivation and interests are a primary factor in NET.

 Most children do not recognize they are "working." 

Generalization is built into this teaching strategy.

DTT is a highly structured form of ABA and typically occurs at a table. Each teachable moment is planned, separate, and distinct. 

DTT is beneficial for students who require more repetition.

 DTT is used to introduce and teach skills and then quickly moves onto NET to help generalize the concept or skill.

PRT is another form of naturalistic ABA used to teach language, decrease disruptive/self-stimulatory behaviors, and increase social, communication, and academic skills by focusing on critical or pivotal behaviors that affect a wide range of other behaviors. 

The primary pivotal behaviors are motivation and the child's initiation of communication with others. 

PRT aims to produce positive changes in pivotal behaviors, improving communication skills, play skills, social behaviors, and the child's ability to monitor his own behavior. 

Carefully designed behavior support strategies are created to decrease challenging behaviors while promoting the development of functional alternative behaviors. 

This process begins with a thorough Functional Behavior Assessment and concludes with an individual-specific, data-driven written behavior support plan.

Whether conducted individually or in groups, social skills programs are thoughtfully crafted to cater to the individuals' unique skills. 

Social skills training can help individuals learn how to: 

• Join in on activities

• Start conversations

• Make and keep friends 

• Resolve conflicts 

• Understand social cues 

• Follow rules and expectations 

• Manage emotions
