LR-0450.7000 |
Programs that offer RDI, a trademarked, proprietary, parent-based clinical treatment program that focuses on the social problems at the heart of autism such as friendship skills, empathy and the desire to share personal experiences with others. The program's core philosophy is that individuals with autism can participate in authentic emotional relationships if they are exposed to them in a gradual, systematic way. RDI seeks to cultivate the building blocks of social connection – such as referencing, emotion sharing, coregulation and experience sharing – that normally develop in infancy and early childhood. It is a family-based program in which trained consultants support families to alter their interaction and communication styles. There is a period of parent education, followed by an assessment of both the child and the child-parent relationship. After that, consultants support the family through a set of specific objectives to build a "guided participation" relationship between parents and child that will allow the child to once again become a "cognitive apprentice" to the parents. Once the cognitive apprenticeship is in place, the family can move on to specific cognitive remediation objectives for the child. These are developmentally staged objectives designed to restore optimal neural connectivity through a series of "discoveries" and "elaborations". |

| Religious Orders |
PV-7030 |
Groups of men and women (almost always separated by gender) who have chosen to live within the confines of the vows they have taken that were established by the leader of that religion. For example, Buddhist monks and nuns have chosen to sequester themselves in like-minded communities for the purpose of devoting themselves to the teachings of Buddha. Within Christianity, religious orders are found primarily in the Roman Catholic Church but can also be a part of the Episcopal Church, Eastern Orthodox, and other liturgical branches. In Catholicism, there are three main types of religious orders: monastic (monks, nuns, and hermits), mendicant (friars), and what are called canons (regular priests living in a community and following an order — usually Augustinian — yet active in a particular parish). Religious orders within the Catholic Church include the Benedictines, the Dominicans, the Franciscans, the Jesuits, the Trappists, and about 35 other groups. Religious orders also exist in many of the world's other religions. The three most common vows taken by those in religious orders are the vow of poverty (relinquishment of all personal possessions), the vow of obedience (surrender of all authority), and the vow of chastity (forsaking all sexual relations). When people "take the vow", they are committing the rest of their lives or a specific number of years to the religious order. Most religious orders adhere to strict daily schedules that revolve around personal meditations, prayers and often humanitarian work. They strive for a minimalist existence in order to devote body, soul, and spirit to the religious ideals they have chosen. |

| Relinquishment for Adoption Assistance and Support |
PH-0300.7000 |
Programs that provide information, assistance and support for birth parents who wish to voluntarily terminate their parental rights to a child and provide consent for adoption. The program may offer assistance with the legal process and paperwork, the selection of the adoptive parent(s) for the child, paternity and fathers' rights and other similar issues as well as relinquishment counseling or other forms of support which address the emotional side of the process (including feelings of fear, grief, loss and sadness) during the relinquishment process and following relinquishment, as needed. In many cases, parental rights are transferred to an adoption agency rather than directly to new adoptive parents so that the agency can maintain the level of confidentiality and privacy that the parties desire and have agreed to in the adoption. The agency passes the parental rights to the adopting parents. Laws governing consent and relinquishment vary by jurisdiction. In some areas, relinquishment is a judicial process, taking place in court; in others, papers can be signed in front of agency representatives, a notary, or other designated person. Other differences include whether relinquishment terminates parental rights or is just part of the process, whether relinquishment papers can be signed prior to the birth of the child or within a specified time following birth, the conditions under which relinquishment can be revoked, and the conditions under which a pending adoption may be interrupted beyond the time allowed for revocation. The term "relinquishment" also applies to the document that birth parents sign as part of the relinquishment process. |
