Yes, your child can have a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) accompany them to school in Illinois to provide consistent, coordinated care.
To arrange this support, you can follow these steps:
- Consult with your BCBA: Begin by discussing your child’s readiness and specific goals for in-school support with your Board Certified Behavior Analyst.
- Obtain School Permission: You must request and receive permission from the school to have an RBT present.
- Coordinate with the Team: Work directly with teachers and administrators to ensure the ABA support aligns with your child’s Individualized Education Program (IEP) or school plan.
- Formalize Communication: Request a signed release of information to enable data sharing between your clinical team and the school staff.
Once approved, an RBT will work during the school day under the ongoing supervision of a BCBA. This specialized support helps children generalize the skills they have learned at home into peer interactions and classroom routines, fostering greater independence and confidence.
