Catalight empowers providers to focus on what matters most – delivering quality care to clients and their families. With a person-centered approach to care, expert guidance, a robust network and focus on clinical innovations, we offer solutions to enhance efficiency and elevate client experiences. Autistic Children May Need Fewer Hours of Treatment Than Previously Thought Catalight’s vice president of clinical excellence was the lead author of a recently published study in Behavior Analysis: Research and Practice. The study suggests children in parent-led groups made greater gains in their social skills than children in the paraprofessional-led group and both groups made significant progress despite receiving a relatively low amount of treatment. Study findings challenge long held assumptions in autism care.
