Workshops focus on Education, Employment, Personal Living, Health and Safety, and Support

What are Movin' On Workshops?

Unconventional, interactive workshops that encourage  youths ages 13 - 19 years of age to "think" and develop skills while having fun.  Youth are taught to use the skills that they do not even realize they have to solve real world issues and deal with challenges that they will face after leaving foster care.

YTIA recognizes that youth learn in a variety of ways and that preparing to leave foster care begins when you enter foster care and that is why our Movin' On Workshops are:

• Tailored to meet youths where they are in life
• Divided into three categories based on the youths age and/or ability
• Can be created specifically for the youths needs
• Focus on specific categories of life skills
• Have an emphasis on preventing and /or mitigating legal effects

Workshops are divided into three categories:

• Get Ready - Designed for youth 13 - 15 years of age.  
• Transitioning Out - Designed for youth 16 - 18 years of age. 
• 18 and Free - Designed for youth 18 and older who want to know what it's really like once you "age out of the system"  or who have "aged out of the system" and need help making it on their own.

Hospital-to-Home Transition
For a medically complex child or adult, the transition from hospital to home can be a difficult one. Our mission is to make this process smoother and less overwhelming by assisting with everything from coordinating the discharge process with the hospital case manager, to settling in after the first time you take your baby home. No matter your situation, having the right help in place can make a world of difference to you and your family.

Our prescribed pediatric extended care services let your kids be kids. Our state-of-the-art facility was designed with children in mind, allowing them to play, dream, and grow — all while meeting their physiological, developmental, nutrition, and social needs. Our goal, through PPEC, is to impact the lives of our medically complex children from the early stages of life all the way into early adulthood.

What is PPEC?
Prescribed pediatric extended care, or PPEC for short, is provided at a non-residential center that serves medically complex or technologically dependent children under the age of 21 who require short, long-term, or intermittent medical care due to medically complex conditions.

The ACP PPEC provides services to medically complex children who cannot attend a regular daycare. Our services meet the child’s physiological, developmental, nutrition, and social needs. We provide nursing and psychosocial services, developmental therapies, caregiver training, and personal care support to our children.

Our Private-Duty Nurses are equipped with the skills to accompany your child to school if it is required by a physician. School nursing services can be added to your child’s plan of care and the nurse assigned can help your child with physical tasks, such as:

• Accompanying the child on the school-provided transportation
• Providing medical care during the school day such as:
• Medication administration
• Tracheostomy and ventilator care
• Additional care ordered by a physician
• Assisting a child with classroom activities
• Serve as the child’s care advocate

Advanced Care Partners entered the adult care market when our patients started to age out of the pediatric programs we serve. Every family that transitions from caring for a medically complex “child” to caring for an “adult” understands how challenging this time can be. As our children age, they often require more specialized and intensive care. We build strong bonds with our families that last a lifetime, just like the care we provide. From birth to adulthood, we are your partner for in-home adult care every step of the way.

Nursing Services
We offer nursing services (also known as private-duty nursing) for medically complex patients through the Medicaid COMP and NOW waiver, private insurance, and private pay. We provide care for:

• Neurological Disorders
• Cardiac Conditions
• Respiratory Disease
• Gastrointestinal Disease
• Metabolic Disorders
• Neuromuscular Disease
• Technology Dependent: Oxygen, Tracheostomy, Ventilator, Feeding
• Tubes, Monitors
• Other Complex Disorders and more

Why choose ABA with TLC Kids?

At TLC we focus on engagement and increasing independence rather than focusing on compliance of behaviors like most ABA programs.  It's been clinically proven that  for new neuro synapsis to be created, activities need to be fun and enjoyable.  

We use a child led, play based model in our play spaces and believe happy learners make progress. We collaborate with occupational therapists and speech therapist to maximize sensory, feeding and communication progress.

What is ABA therapy?

ABA therapy is based on the science of how human behavior works.  In ABA the term “behavior” refers to all observable behavior, not just challenging behavior.  ABA therapy uses the science of how environment impacts behavior to teach behavioral skills related to social interaction, communication, school readiness, and self-care.

ABA therapy is also effective in decreasing behavior that can impede an individual’s quality of life – such as, physical aggression, self-injury, and elopement – by seeking to understand why the behavior is occurring and teaching replacement behaviors.  ABA focuses on teaching what to do instead of what not to do. 

ABA teaching techniques:

• Discrete Trial Learning (Training) is based on the understanding that practice helps a child master a skill.  This is a structured teaching technique that involves intensive learning of specific behaviors.  Skills are taught in repetition during several trials.  This repetitive teaching can benefit children who may need multiple opportunities to practice a skill to master it. 
• Incidental Teaching (or Natural Environment Training) is based on the understanding that it is important to give real-life meaning to the skills a child is learning.  It includes a focus on teaching skills in settings where your child will naturally use them.  Using a child’s natural everyday environment in therapy can help increase the transfer of skills to everyday situations and helps generalization.  In Incidental Teaching, the therapist utilizes naturally occurring opportunities in order to help the child learn skills.  The activity or situation is chosen by the child, and the caregiver or teacher follows the child’s lead or interest.  These teaching strategies were developed to facilitate generalization and maximize reinforcement.  Once naturally occurring situations in which a child expresses interest are identified, the therapist then uses prompts to encourage responses from the child. 
• Verbal Behavior is similar to discrete trial training in that it is a structured, intensive, one-to-one therapy.  It differs from discrete trial training in that it is designed to motivate a child to learn language by developing a connection between a word and its meaning.  For some children, teaching a word or label needs to include a deliberate focus on teaching them how to use their words functionally For example: “What is this?” “A cup.” “What do you use a cup for?” “Drinking.” “What do you drink out of?” “A cup.” 
• Pivotal Response Training is a naturalistic, loosely structured, intervention that relies on naturally occurring teaching opportunities.  The focus of PRT is to increase motivation by adding components such as turn-taking, reinforcing attempts, child-choice, and interspersing maintenance (pre-learned) tasks.  It takes the focus off of areas of deficits and redirects attention to certain pivotal areas that are viewed as key for a wide range of functioning in children.  Four pivotal areas have been identified: a) motivation, b) child self-initiations, c) self management, and d) responsiveness to multiple cues. It is believed that when these areas are promoted, they produce improvements in many of the non-targeted behaviors.
