Episode 160 - Incorporating Unique Interests w/ Tameika Meadows

Though many of us have probably spent much of our careers fretting over how we can help autistic children stop engaging in stereotypic or seemingly ritualistic behavior, have we spent enough time asking whether attending to these unique interests might actually be beneficial? This week we're joined by Tameika Meadows from I Love ABA to flip the script on that old chestnut and see what research tells us about all of the benefits to appreciating a person's preferences, no matter how different they may be.

This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.
