Abstract

This poster outlines two main behavioral strategies utilized by the Personal Effectiveness Program at Misericordia. It discusses studies that empirically support their efficacy in facilitating positive behavioral development in residents with Autism Spectrum Disorder. I also describe what the Personal Effectiveness Program is in the poster regarding its support to differently abled residents at Misericordia. The poster also promotes my experience with the Social Justice Internship Program through Loyola's Center for Experiential Learning, as well as my reflection about my year-long experience as an Intern at Misericordia.
