CBI sessions are immersive, real-world learning experiences that blend life skills with community navigation. Whether it’s shopping for groceries, ordering food, visiting the library, or using public transit, each outing is intentionally designed to develop independence, safety awareness, money handling, and social appropriateness in context. We use naturalistic teaching, incidental learning, and in-vivo prompting strategies to support generalization and real-time problem-solving.

Best for: older children and tweens working on functional independence, social adaptability, or transition planning.
Benefits include: increased self-confidence, situational problem-solving, functional math/literacy growth, and preparation for adulthood.
