The Hope Source, Inc.

Mission Statment: To promote collaboration, problem-solving, dynamic communication, flexible and creative thinking, and self-awareness for dynamic intelligence in children with autism spectrum disorders.

The Hope Source Center for Dynamic Minds offers therapeutic education for children with home, parent-based RDI Programs. The center supports the child's home program with daily, direct extension, incorporating the cognitive, social, and emotional remediation objectives into the child's entire day.

Extension is one-to-one. All therapists or "extenders" receive ongoing training in RDI methods, under the supervision of a RDI Program Certified Consultant. The extenders, Certified Consultant, and parents collaborate to develop the goals for the child.

The goals incorporate the remediation objectives being targeted at home and follow the Indiana Academic Standards. The goals may also include Occupational therapy and Speech goals prescribed by the child's outside therapists. Every six weeks, progress is assessed and reported to the team.

Please be patient as more exciting information and pictures will be posted soon.
