Regional Center (NLACRC)
***16 hour Parent Education Group (PEG) is a Regional Center funded service available to all consumers and their families regardless of funding source for Behavior Services. The class is not mandatory for families obtaining ABA coverage through their health insurance. However, we highly encourage this class to learn the basics of ABA and become familiar with the principles of learning which will be applied when in-home services begin. In addition, parents seeking co-pay, co-insurance, or deductible assistance from NLACRC must attend the 16 hour PEG.
