EdRedefined was created to make college and other postsecondary programs more inclusive, help students build their skills, and provide ongoing support so that students will thrive and be happy. 

OUR APPROACH

  • We believe individuals with disabilities are just that...individuals. Each person has unique strengths and talents.
  • We believe individuals can continually build their skills; some of these will be mastered over time, while others may require continual support.
  • The voice of a student with disabilities is most important. We utilize Person Centered Planning, a widely respected process of continually listening to and learning what is important to an individual with disabilities in partnership with the student’s family.
  • We believe students will be successful and retention and graduation rates will increase as students have greater access to high-quality and sufficient levels of support.

But there has to be a better way to help students and young children. I am not suggesting all ABA-based therapies in use today are bad. I sincerely believe ABA must be revised, researched, and ideally all connections to anything Lovaas did forgotten to history.
