As well, the government says provincial plans are in the works for more support in the school system. But, this may mean only 2-4 hours of therapy weekly vs. 20 hours per week with IBI. Parents have been quick to respond that their children have received ABA therapy in the past with poor results, and appear to have little confidence in the ability of an over burdened public school system to deliver the kind of intensive therapy autistic children need. In a critical letter to the Minister, The Ontar- io Association for Behaviour Analysis (ONTA- BA) says that the ABA program is widely ac- cepted “as sub-therapeutic, and does not result in meaningful outcomes according to the lit- erature review conducted by the government’s own Expert Panel Report.” The ONTABA, with high expertise in the field and experience in government consulta- tion, was not consulted in the Liberal legis- lation, and are now critically questioning the findings of those experts who provided the support for the government’s position. They also question the exclusion of the Ontario Au- tism Coalition, which represents parents’ con- cerns, in discussions that led to the decision. Dufferin County parent Kelly McDowell says her five year old daughter Emily, who re- ceives IBI three days a week, and waited over three years to start the therapy just this past October, will now be transitioned out. IBI has been “a great fit for Emily,” says her mother. “Her gains have been remarkable. This ther- apy has enabled her to communicate. It will help her function in school, in life and hope- fully becoming a participating and functioning member of society. Without it, she has a much lesser likelihood of this happening. Her mor- tality rate increases and the cost of government support will be life-long for her.” Kelly, and her husband Julian McDowell, are extremely active with the Ontario Autism Coalition and attended the rally in Pickering In a world fi lled with facebook last week, as well as the Queen’s Park press conference. posts, tweets, instagrams and “I believe, because our next assessment hap- pens to be in May, we will be one of the first to be cut from IBI,” says McDowell. snapchats, we still feel the best The parents do not know what will happen at that point. way to connect socially is with “We have been informed her service will not stop until she is in enhanced ABA,” says Kel- one of our beers! ly. “But, they don’t know what the in between service looks like, or how many hours the new ABA will be.” The McDowells are understandably frustrat- ed and worried; they feel the government is Authentically social. “making it sound like they are benefiting ASD children, but they are merely dropping an en- tire generation in lieu of better service to future generations of ASD kids.” The couple says any parent would have happily taken IBI for their child at two years, but most, like them, were told “no one starts at two, and although best to start treatment young, Emily would still have very effective treatment at four or five.” Now that opportu- nity is gone. “In Orangeville, we have no alternative services and many will be forced to move or drive hours to get service,” says McDowell, “My daughter’s most recent assessment shows that IBI does work over the age of five.” Many HOCKLEYBEER.CA hope the government will at least ‘grandfa- ther-in’ the children who are already on the IBI wait list.
