The New England Center for Children reviews

- High staff turnover/ often understaffed - Disconnects between NECC residential and PSS programs

Everyone is burnt out and stuck because they are on a H1B visa and/or committed to a Master’s program with tuition assistance they’d have to pay back if they left. The ABA used is incredibly old school DTT, with very little incidental teaching/NET. Teaching was not made enjoyable for staff or students. Reading books or doing activities was barely encouraged/supported. There is very little ABA training provided to staff (most of the training is NECC policies/procedures), which leads to poor decision making from inexperienced staff. Physical intervention is jumped to way too quickly. There are tons of data integrity issues (goes back to training and understanding fundamentals), not only in the clinical day-to-day but also in the research. When you’re an effective employee, you just get the more challenging students and programs more often.
