Nexus: A Social Competence Program for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders

  • Description:

    The Nexus program meets Saturday afternoons on the campus of Plattsburgh State during the fall and spring semesters. Children arrive at 12:30 p.m. and stay until 3:00 p.m.. Social skill instruction occurs in the context of activities such as games, gym activities, and crafts. Up to 30 graduate and undergraduate students work under the supervision of two clinicians in the field of autism: Dr. Patricia Egan (associate professor in the Psychology Dept.) and Ms. Andrea Martino, M.S.. Both are Board Certified Behavior Analysts. College students help kids at Nexus succeed by prompting positive interactions, rewarding appropriate behavior, helping children to achieve personal goals, and teaching children to monitor their own progress. Nexus serves 25 children with autism spectrum disorders and OPWDD eligibility, ages 5-16. Contact Dr. Egan for more information or for an application for admission to Nexus.
