**ACT is the local provider of the cutting-edge, government-funded Entry to School Program, a school readiness program for children on the Autism Spectrum.** The Entry to School Program is focused on helping children develop school-readiness skills in six key areas. (Communication, play, social interaction, functional routines, behaviour self-management, pre-academic learning and attention). The program consists of two parts, a group-based learning program for six months and upon completion of the first group-based part of the program, the children will proceed to the second part of the program which is transition support as they enter school. The program is delivered through a multidisciplinary model of service which includes a classroom team of early childhood educators, communicative disorder assistants, occupational therapy assistants and behavioural therapists. The classroom team (classroom facilitators) receive weekly consultation and coaching from a supervisory team, which consists of an Occupational Therapist, a Speech and Language Therapist and a Board-Certified Behavioural Analyst.
