The Elija FoundationFounded by two parents who are determined to incorporate the most effective interventions for their children with Autism. Using Applied Behavior Analysis (A.B.A) as their firm foundation of intervention, they strive to keep their educational programs for their children effective, exciting, enjoyable, well-rounded, non-static and based on the most current research findings. They are constantly researching and making themselves knowledgeable in any interventions they feel would be an enhancement strategy to their existing programs. Wanting to share their enthusiasm, they have created this foundation to unite with other highly motivated parents who may also want to keep themselves EMPOWERED, ENCOURAGED and ENLIGHTENED with knowledge of not only academically inclined interventions but also with the motivational, inspirational and emotional aspects of educating and parenting a child on the Autistic Spectrum. We have been approved to form and establish an organization to provide support for parents of autistic children; to encourage, enhance and increase family and community support and understanding for the problems facing autistic children. We also strive to Develop and produce and offer seminars and workshops for parents, schools and other organizations concerning the needs of autistic children. We encourage interest awareness and activities in the local, state and national political arenas with reference to the needs of autistic children.We also aid in the creation, establishment and development of suitable educational curriculum and programs for autistic students.
