NYCIT has had a long standing partnership with a national major researcher at UCLA, Dr. Connie Kasari, a leading expert in the field of interventions for young children with Autism. Together with Dr. Kasari and her team from UCLA- NYCIT participated in two randomized control studies, examining the effectiveness of adding a targeted play based intervention — JASPER — focused on social communication and joint attention – to an existing ABA Curriculum.

The research has resulted in significantly improved outcomes in social communication and play skills for young children with Autism and has produced a peer reviewed journal article.
