Overview of the AIM System

A clear path for implementation is described that blends mindful practices, daily ACT lessons, function-based reinforcers, and methods of progress monitoring.

Implementation Checklists

Keep implementation integrity through the use of worksheets that illustrate all elements of the AIM program.  Supervisors can use these sheets to provide feedback to staff on implementation quality and completeness.

Functional Behavior Tracking

Track behavior.  Track ACT-process demonstrations.  Using a modified version of an Antecedent-Behavior-Consequence approach that embraces hexaflex, get objective evaluations of how things are going every day.

Detailed Information on ACT and SEL

The introduction of the AIM book provides an excellent overview of how Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) serves as the active treatment approach.  Each of the six core processes is explained in simple terms and how to best get children to understand their use in daily life.

Behavior and SEL Point System

Keep track of how every child is doing during the school day or therapy session using one of five different point system data sheets.  Easily applied to every possible setting.

Daily AIM Lessons

Bring the concepts of ACT to life with daily lessons designed to be delivered at multi-tiered levels of intervention.  From brief thematic overviews to be announced in general education, to creative dialogues in dedicated SEL or ABA treatment sessions, and even experiential activities that keep children learning and yearning for more.
