MORE THAN WORDS® — THE HANEN PROGRAM® FOR PARENTS OF CHILDREN WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER
The More Than Words Program was designed specifically for parents of children ages 5 and under on the autism spectrum. Addressing the unique needs of these children, the program provides parents with the tools, strategies and support they need to help their children reach their full communication potential.
More Than Words does this by empowering you to help your child reach the following three goals:
1. Improved social skills
2. The ability to engage in back-and-forth interactions
3. Improved understanding of language
The More Than Words Program focuses on your natural, day-to-day life with your child. You’ll learn how to tweak the activities that you’re doing with your child already and turn them into productive and enjoyable learning opportunities.
