Autism Outreach
Autism Outreach, Incorporated (AOI) was founded in 1999 by Michelle Hurst and Leslie Smith in an effort to provide families with a much needed service that would offer them and their children diagnosed with autism individualized programs. AOI has grown from a team of two consultants who implemented programs based on Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) to a large team of consultants who individualize programs based on ABA (to include Verbal Behavior, Discrete Trial Teaching, Pivotal Response Teaching, and Fluency Teaching), social skills groups, and play based therapy to help with appropriate play skills. Our consultants at AOI regularly attend conferences and review the latest research in an effort to provide the most effective programming for each of our children and their families. All AOI consultants are either BC/BCaBa certified or pursuing that certification. This gives our families the peace of mind that is needed as we develop and implement the most effective program possible for their child.
