RUBI parent training

RUBI is an evidence-based parent education program that was designed to decrease mild to moderate challenging behaviors in children with ASD.

While the RUBI program research has only been conducted with families of children with ASD, the techniques and strategies taught to parents within this program have been empirically validated with a wide variety of children.

Is RUBI right for my family?

This program is for parents and caregivers who have a child between the ages of 3-10 years old and problem mild to moderate unwanted behaviors such as aggression (hitting, kicking, biting), tantrums, meltdowns, screaming, non-compliance, whining, and other behaviors that interfere with daily life.

Children are not required to have a diagnosis of ASD for their parents or caregivers to participate and benefit from this program.

This program may be implemented in conjunction with other skills-based interventions (e.g., school services, ABA, OT, PT, Speech).
