ABA-based therapies teach skills through the use of behavioral observation and reinforcement or prompting to teach each step of targeted behavior.

  • Wraparound Agencies (WAA) – The WAA is responsible for facilitating the wraparound process, developing individualized POCs that cross agencies and assigning one accountable individual to coordinate care. Children and families enrolled in CSoC are eligible to receive:
    • Crisis stabilization
    • Parent support and training
    • Youth support and training
    • Independent living/skills building
    • Short term respite care
