About Hopewell Borough: Hopewell Borough's John Hart, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, is associated with the area's Revolutionary-era history. The Hopewell Valley Regional School District district provides some autism services through IEP, but ABA therapy through insurance fills the gaps school cannot—including after-school hours, summers, and the clinical intensity your child’s IEP may not authorize.

Why spitting happens

Spitting may be a way to get a reaction or attention, to escape a task, or it can be sensory-driven (some children enjoy the sensation). It can also start by accident and continue because of the response it gets. A BCBA identifies the function through careful observation before intervening.

Teaching a better option

ABA reduces spitting by minimizing the reaction that may be reinforcing it, teaching a replacement (communicating a need, or an appropriate sensory alternative), and consistently reinforcing the new behavior. Consistency across caregivers is key, so parent coaching is built in. Related: sensory processing.
