Center for Autism and Developmental Disorders (CADD) Summer Intensive Treatment Program

The CADD Summer Intensive Treatment Program of UPMC Western Psychiatric Hospital is a behavioral health program designed to meet the unique mental and behavioral health needs of at-risk children and adolescents.

Contact Us

Please call 412-335-7584 or 412-235-5494, for more information or to refer a child or an adolescent for services.

Address:
CADD Summer Intensive Treatment Program
1011 Bingham St.
Pittsburgh, PA 15203

Our Mission

The CADD Summer Intensive Treatment Program mission is to reduce serious psychiatric symptomatology and to improve a young person’s ability to function more successfully at home, at school, and in the community.

Services Provided

The therapeutic activities and treatment methods utilized may include:

  • Individualized positive behavior support plans (based on a functional behavioral assessment).
  • Verbal behavior and other elements of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).
  • Social Thinking© (Social Thinking© is copyrighted by Michelle Garcia Winner).
  • Social skills.
  • Development of individual and parallel play skills.
  • Communication training.
  • Community based instruction/safety skills.

Referral and Acceptance

  • The program accepts children ages five to 15 years old diagnosed with autism or other developmental disabilities.
  • Adolescents, ages 16 to 19, that meet the above criteria will be evaluated on an individual basis.

Children are accepted to the program under two categories: partial hospitalization and/or extended school year (ESY).

  • Children who attend the program under partial hospitalization may be at risk and qualify for higher levels of care, such as inpatient admission, placement into a residential treatment facility, or admission into a more restrictive school setting, without the summer service. Children accepted under partial hospitalization require insurance approval.
  • ESY will come to the program under an agreement with the child’s school district.

A completed application and psychiatric assessment is required for admittance to the program.
