The Son-Rise Program®
IN-PERSON START-UP
The Program
OUR ESSENTIAL FOUNDATIONAL COURSE: A 5-day group training program designed for parents, relatives and professionals looking to facilitate meaningful progress in their children challenged by Autism, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD), Asperger’s Syndrome, High Functioning Autism and other related developmental difficulties.
With a line-up of inspiring and diverse presentations by a group of seasoned and dedicated teachers, you will be exposed to the autism strategies, expertise, motivation and knowledge honed through years of working with thousands of families and children with Autism Spectrum Disorders.

Program Features
• Experience an accelerated fast-track program that gives you months of information in 5 days!
• Participate in carefully-crafted interactive experiences designed to enable you to truly understand how to implement The Son-Rise Program techniques, leaving you with a deep confidence, strength, hope, and sense of optimism.
• Question and answer sessions that specifically address and offer solutions to the wide array of questions, concerns and real-life issues that parents deal with on a daily basis, such as eating issues, sleep problems, potty training, dietary intervention, and dealing with hitting, yelling, and other challenging behaviors.
• Bond with other parents (and educators) walking the same path as you. Many course attendees make lifelong friends during the inperson course.
• Build a supportive community that can serve as a valuable support network for you throughout your journey with your child. After attending The Son-Rise Program Start-Up, parents often share that they no longer feel alone and isolated. Instead, they feel connected and supported, often for the first time.
• Get direct, engaged interaction and inspiration from our dynamic, caring, motivating, and deeply knowledgeable teachers, who have spent thousands of hours working directly with children on the spectrum.
• Take time away from your hectic and busy life to decompress.
• Be surrounded by incredibly supportive staff who totally believe in your child (and you) – a dramatic departure from what you might be used to.
Attending The Son-Rise Program® In-Person Start-Up was a life-changing experience for me. Although I am an educational psychologist who is familiar with Autism, Start-Up gave me a whole new perspective which my professional training and years of experience didn’t. The speakers truly understand the needs of people with Autism and shared many useful and practical techniques that I could implement for my son immediately, with such amazing improvements. Most importantly, Start-Up gave me hope for my son and taught me how to build up a loving relationship with him. I strongly recommend every parent with a child on the autism spectrum to attend The Son-Rise Program® In-Person Start-Up
