Accelerated Childhood Education, Inc. - Who We Are
Accelerated Childhood Education is a Non For Profit Early Intervention Agency. We provide ongoing services including the intensive methodology of Applied Behavioral Analysis.

ACE was founded by a parent and a professional concerned about providing quality intensive programming to those families in need in the borough of Queens.

Our goal is to work intensively using the methodology of Applied Behavioral Analysis to teach parents and families these time tested and researched strategies to instruct children. To improve upon their area(s) of deficit(s).

We teach children how to learn, and how to focus, and imitate. The approach we use breaks down the learning into smaller more manageable steps. The teacher then reinforces each attempt. Included in our teaching is both the discrete trial and incidental teaching. We work both in a more structured format and through play. Through the use of this type of teaching we can teach children to make sounds, then words, then chain those words into sentences. We work closely with parents and families to train them in how to increase the learning opportunities throughout the day and to generalize his or her new skills. Parents and siblings can be the most effective teachers when given the tools to work with. We provide these.

All Accelerated Childhood Education Supervisors have extensive backgrounds in the field of Applied Behavioral Analysis. Our program coordinators includes Clinical Psychologists and Behavior Analysists. All are dedicated to the field and to the science.

ACE supervisors work directly (on a weekly basis) putting together an individualized program for the particular child and family. We design programs which will attack the deficits and expand on the child's strengths. We Focus on issues that the family feels are most important and relevant for their specific home life and culture.

These programs performed through both structured and play strategies most commonly focus on language, play and daily routines, as we ll as areas identified as important and relevant to the individual family.

ACE also provides Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, and Social Work for toddlers needing these other services. Our other professionals in these related fields are also highly qualified and able to work smoothly with our ABA teams and programs.

Our Mission is to provide the most comprehensive and intensive learning experience when the window of opportunity for learning is greatest.
