I went to a parent seminar last weekend and they had someone come in and talk about a program the schools here are integrating called SCERTS.

The SCERTS™ Model (Social Communication, Emotional Regulation and Transactional Support) was developed out of 25 years of research and clinical/educational practice by Dr. Barry Prizant, Dr. Amy Wetherby, Ms. Emily Rubin, Ms. Amy Laurent and Dr. Patrick Rydell, a multidisciplinary team of professionals trained in Communication Disorders, Special Education, Occupational Therapy, and Developmental and Behavioral Psychology. Each team member brought his or her area of expertise to create this educational approach for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and their families. SCERTS™ is a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to enhancing communication and socioemotional abilities, and for supporting families.

Anyway, I thought this was really interesting and was wondering if anyone else had heard of it or has seen it in a classroom.
