Individuals with autism typically engage in stereotypical, restrictive, or repetitive behaviors, such as hand flapping, body rocking, lining up objects in a fixated manner, or compulsive ritual behaviors.

Autism does not affect life expectancy. However, research has shown that the mortality risk among individuals with autism is double the general population, in large part due to drowning and other accidents.

PRISM Learning Center aspires to improve quality of life for the Autism community

Our Mission

Our Mission

PRISM Learning Center aspires to improve the quality of life for the Autism community. We recognize the emotional, physical, and financial impact this diagnosis can have on an individual, family, and communal level. We are committed to addressing the learner’s successful independent development and supporting those who interact with them daily.

We believe that by employing the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis to teach our learners adaptive behaviors, they can flourish into happy, productive, and contributing members of society. At PRISM, success is not measured by the goals we master in therapy, but by the realization of our learners no longer requiring our services.

Our Vision

At PRISM Learning Center we understand that quality of life does not exist without independence. Our hope for our learners is that one day they will thrive in any setting and in any relationship, be it at home, in school, on the playground, and among family, friends, or coworkers. We recognize that for our learners to have the possibility to be included and accepted in those environments, we first need to decrease stigmatizing behaviors that isolate them from their typically developing peers. Our goal is to increase their opportunities for true independent living.

At PRISM, our approach for decreasing maladaptive behavior is by establishing what we call the “function” of the behavior. What purpose or need does that behavior meet? And how can we teach a more effective way for that need to be met? We address the learner’s developmental deficits by breaking down prerequisite skills into smaller components. We teach them valuable life skills so that the learner can utilize their needs more competently.

Using differential reinforcement procedures, we redirect behaviors we want to decrease by prompting an alternative behavior and immediately rewarding the learner following the appropriate response. Positive reinforcement-based contingencies increase on-task responding and overall learner motivation, allowing us to progressively shape more functional behaviors over time. This strategy helps us forge an ideal learning environment where the learner is engaged and enthusiastic about surpassing the goals we set in therapy.

ABA Therapy Center Passaic, NJ

We are open 7:00 AM – 7:30 PM

Prism Learning Center’s therapy schedule depends on the learner’s availability for services, and the hours approved by the insurance.

We are open 7:00 AM-7:30 PM.

Availability depends on parental preference of when they request services. PLC works with parents at the outset of therapy to match a therapist who can accommodate their needs on where, when, and how they want services provided for their family.

Please let us know how we can help you.

Special child services

PRISM Learning Center is focused on creating an ideal learning environment where children with ASD and related disorders develop age-appropriate skills that enable them to function more successfully and independently in their daily living. Behavior plans are tailored to meet the specific needs of each individual child and address their core behavioral deficits.

The principles of Applied Behavior Analyses are systematically applied in order to implement evidence-based interventions that reliably influence socially significant behaviors. The process of therapy is guided by data-based decision-making. Behavior data is recorded daily by the therapist and analyzed by the supervisor. This allows caregivers, insurance, and other providers access to the child's progress at all times and ensures consistency and accountability on the part of all team members.



Our Process

Intake

A consultant takes your information and contacts your insurance to begin authorization.

Assessment

A BCBA assesses your child via direct observation and/or parent interview and creates a personalized treatment plan.

Direct Treatment

We match your child and your family with an experienced therapist who best accommodates your needs and availability. The therapist renders 1:1 ABA services, running behavior programs as specified by the BCBA, and collecting data.

Quality Assurance

Treatment planning and supervision. The BCBA designs skill acquisition and behavior reduction targets, monitors the data, adds next steps for mastered targets, modifies treatment, and trains and supervises the therapist as necessary.

Family Consultation

The Clinical Director, BCBA, and therapist collaborate with your family to empower family members with scientifically proven strategies and to offer training and support.
