Intensive Residential Treatment Program

Intensive Residential Treatment Program is a Michigan-licensed child caring institution serving youth ages 6-17 with a diagnosis of autism and other developmental disabilities. Through the uses of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and in coordination with medical educational, and psychiatric supports, we aim to reduce problem behaviors and teach adaptive skills to prepare children to transition back to their home. Examples of service goals include: increasing functional communication skills, learning to wait, accepting “no”, working successfully in the classroom, participating in a group, decreasing challenging behavior, building self-care and adaptive living skills, and improving social skills.
