Summary

This study tests a treatment called FBET to reduce elopement (wandering away) in children aged 4–12 with autism. About 50 children will receive 12 therapy sessions over 20 weeks, either with FBET or standard care. The goal is to see if FBET is practical in community clinics and whether it lowers elopement and improves daily life.
