Relationship Development Intervention (RDI®)

The RDI® Program is:

• A parent-based clinical treatment program where parents are provided the tools to effectively teach Dynamic Intelligence skills and motivation to their child.
• About the joy in connecting: a path for people on the Autism Spectrum to learn friendship, empathy, and a love of sharing their world and experiences with others.
• About changing neurology: a way for people on the spectrum to become flexible thinkers and creative problem solvers who enjoy the challenges of change and who desire to expand their world.
• Based on over 20 years of research by world's experts on typical development as well as scientific studies on people with autism.
• Developmental & systematic: a step-by-step program that focuses first on building the motivations so that skills will be used & generalized; followed by carefully and systematically building the skills for competence and fulfillment in a complex world.
• Realistic: a program that can be started easily, and implemented seamlessly into regular, day-to-day activities to enrich the life of the whole family.
• Precise: a method that measures and begins at the edge of each person's capability and then carefully but continually raises the bar.
• Effective: within 18 months, over 70% of children in our initial study improved their diagnosis based on the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS). The majority of children also moved from a special education to a regular classroom without needing an aide.
