Pivotal Response Treatment (PRT) Training @ McMaster Children’s Hospital

FOUNDATIONAL FAMILY SERVICE Pivotal Response Treatment (PRT)® is an evidence-based, naturalistic developmental behavioural intervention for children with ASD up to age 12 years. This training includes 2 group sessions for parents-caregivers and 4 individual consultation sessions that involve both child and parent- caregiver participation. You will learn strategies that increase your child’s skills in a specific pivotal area known to produce widespread positive improvements in learning, social communication, and behaviour. A screening will be completed to determine which pivotal area is most appropriate for your child or to provide recommendations for other services.
