This session will begin with a description of interfering behavior that may be observed in toddlers with autism. We will then explain evidence-based approaches and strategies to address toddler behaviors as part of early intervention services, to support early intervention providers working in collaboration with families, caregivers, and early care and education providers. Existing freely available online modules and resources will be highlighted and shared to support addressing interfering behaviors in early intervention practice. Future directions in research and practice will also be discussed.
