11 Michigan ABA Successes $2.6M in autism contracts in 2014 $9M in autism contracts in 2015 Michigan now has 7 universities offering ABA degree programs up from 2 in 2012 (8 th in the works) 11
12 Michigan ABA Challenges ABA Providers ABA providers are indicating they have room for more children; MDCH staff have provided leads and we are learning regions are not following up on increasing capacity. This elevates our non-compliance with ABA.

MDCH is pursuing an expansion of behavioral intervention services for children with ASD beyond age 6 and we will update stakeholders about the policy and effective dates when they become more apparent 16

38 Owen July 2014 October 2014
39 Hope O I spent yesterday with my daughter and my grandson Owen. Owen is Autistic. In May Owen had limited space in the house, as most of it was gaited for his safety. He was non verbal, limited eye contact, and we were at a loss on how to help him acquire these safety skills. He was not allowed outside as he would run without direction or purpose. He is now able to play outside and will walk to the park holding fingers. He has never said Momma or Daddy or I love you but yesterday he said uhn and twa, for one and two and we celebrated. A glimmer of hope into a situation of this type is huge. Christine has been a full ray of sunshine for my daughter and grandson. I am beyond grateful for the Autism program at CMH and thought you should know.
