Kindness is the Method, Not the Reward.
Understanding the role of those providing ABA services is impactful not only to the client but also to their families, co-workers, and members of the community. The Kindness Method seeks to provide a guide on how services can be delivered to those we have the privilege to love and serve.
What is the Kindness Method?
The Kindness Method is a transformative way to practice ABA. It addresses those who are providing the services – those who teach and impact others. Developing meaningful, caring, and warm relationships built on kindness benefits not only clients and families but providers as well. Kindness can be implemented in every step of how we treat others. Kindness is not just a reward; it is the method.
