PECS

Taxonomy Code: LR-0450.6500

Programs that offer PECS (Picture Exchange Communication Systems), an augmented communication program which teaches children and adults with autism spectrum disorders who do not talk to communicate using pictures. It uses ABA-based methods to teach program participants to exchange a picture for something they want, either an item or activity. The individual hands a person a picture, and his or her request is immediately understood. It may also help the person respond to requests by accepting pictures. The pictures can be used to help participants learn attributes such as colors and numbers, or how to form sentences.
