Our mission

We at ABIQ believe that families of children with Autism deserve a choice of Early Intervention Programme (EIP). We believe that Applied Behavioural Analysis (ABA) is the most effective form of Early Intervention Programme. Our goal is to assist families of children with Autism to implement an Applied Behavioural Analysis programme when they make that choice. We aim to achieve this goal by performing the following activities:

  • Providing professionals and the public with information about Autism Behavioural Intervention Qld and Applied Behavioural Analysis as an alternative Early Intervention Programme to existing services.

  • Supporting coherent, chronologically appropriate responses to all aspects of Autism, from diagnosis onwards.

  • Debunking the existing mindset in Queensland that children with Autism necessarily grow into adults with Autism.

  • Promoting an understanding that a child with Autism may have all the potential of any other child.

  • Lobbying State and Federal Governments to fund Applied Behavioural Analysis programmes.

  • Forming partnerships with businesses and the community to assist families participating in the Applied Behavioural Analysis programme.

  • Building a support network and resource base for families of children with Autism undergoing an Applied Behavioural Analysis programme.

  • Increasing the number of service providers and teaching assistants to meet the needs of families of children with Autism.
