The UAB Civitan-Sparks Clinics offers several programs, including Project Heroes and the Summer Treatment Program. Each program is specifically developed to provide service, resources and support to children and their families.
Summer Treatment Program This intensive, 6-week program is designed to provide individualized and group-based treatment to children with behavior disorders such as ADHD, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, or Autism Spectrum Disorders such as Asperger's Disorder. The program utilizes social skills and problem solving training, academic remediation, sports skills training, medication assessment, behavior therapy, and parent education provided in a therapeutic summer day camp setting with daily recreational activities (e.g., soccer, kickball), art classes, direct academic instruction by certified teachers and a computer lab. Individual goals are established for each child, and parents receive daily and weekly reports on their child's progress.
