TEACCH approach, Medical treatment method for autism at University of North Carolina, United States
The TEACCH method provides structured learning environments with visual aids and individual strategies to help children with autism spectrum disorders develop skills.
Eric Schopler established the TEACCH program in 1971 at the University of North Carolina, leading to its implementation across all North Carolina clinics by 1972.
The methodology changed perceptions about autism by demonstrating that affected children did not necessarily have additional mental disorders, contrary to previous beliefs.
Parents and teachers collaborate through TEACCH to create personalized educational strategies, visual schedules, and structured environments for children with autism.
North Carolina maintains nine state-funded TEACCH centers that offer clinical services, professional training programs, and direct support for families affected by autism.
