OUR MISSION: We are the DIR/Floortime Coalition and the Coalition for Developmental Approaches -- parents, families, and professionals promoting parent and family choice in treatments. We are spreading the word about evidence-supported developmental approaches to therapies such as DIR/Floortime, PLAY Project, SCERTS, PACT, etc. to help autistic people across the lifespan along with those with other developmental challenges. We are committed to expanding awareness, access to, and use of developmental approaches through education, fundraising, research, networking, and policy advocacy. |
