Summary
This study tests whether an online Spanish course can teach parents of young children with autism to use Pivotal Response Treatment (PRT) to boost communication and social skills. Forty Spanish-speaking families with children aged 2 to 5 will take 12 weeks of online lessons, attend virtual check-ins, and submit videos of their interactions. The goal is to make effective autism support more accessible to families facing language, location, or cost barriers.
