Charlotte TEACCH Intervention Services

TEACCH® Charlotte offers several intervention services for TEACCH clients and families of TEACCH clients. If you are a parent, caregiver, or guardian of a TEACCH client, please register and attend one of our parent classes in order to be eligible for intervention services. Our parent classes focus on information about Autism Spectrum Disorders, introduction to TEACCH strategies and supports, and problem-solving of challenging behaviors.

The Charlotte TEACCH Center offers Individual Caregiver TEACCHing Sessions to eligible TEACCH clients and their families. These sessions focus on a particular challenge or goal that is individualized to your child.
These sessions are for families and caregivers of TEACCH clients who have a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder
Each session lasts approximately 50 minutes. A set of sessions may consist of 2 to 6 sessions and are offered Monday through Friday.
One or two Autism Specialists work with each family.

YES! TEACCH has always been committed to working with parents and caregivers as co-therapists. During the sessions, you will continue to increase your understanding of autism spectrum disorder, the reasons behind your child’s difficulties and ways to teach your child a new skill. Parents and caregivers will work directly with an Autism Specialist and their child to practice the strategies they can use at home.

The Charlotte TEACCH Center offers the opportunity for eligible TEACCH clients to participate in a variety of groups. Groups are generally formed to meet a specific need (i.e., social skills training, peer support, recreation, etc.). Additionally, groups are sometimes divided by age-range, gender, and skills needed to participate. We offer groups when we have a number of clients asking for a specific service or when we identify that many clients waiting for services have common interests, strengths, and needs.
