The Son-Rise Program:
Getting Started (FREE DVD!)
Experience an introduction to The Son-Rise Program through this inspiring video. Learn practical tools that you can begin using today, and see examples of these tools in practice.
The Son-Rise Program was originated by Barry Neil Kaufman and Samahria Lyte Kaufman in 1974 for their son, Raun, who was challenged by autism.
Their Autism education model has changed the way children with Autism are helped worldwide.
The following video is an introduction to The Son-Rise Program with some practical Autism teaching and treatment tools that you can begin using today and some examples of those tools in practice.
ABA vs The Son-Rise Program
Watch the series of 60-90 second video clips that, in a funny but sweet way, outline the differences between ABA and The Son-Rise Program.
Parents are the best resource for the child and our wish is that we can get The Son-Rise Program's message of hope out to other parents.
The purpose of these videos is to stimulate debate and discussion in a playful, fun, and lighthearted way. Our goal is to outline the key differences between ABA and The Son-Rise Program and to give parents the knowledge so that they can make an educated choice for their child and their family.

A Son-Rise Program Mom shares her letter…
Dears Bears
As you know our Son-Rise Program is staffed by an agency USING STATE FUNDING (Maine) . WE are SO blessed to have amazing staff. Emma is making GREAT PROGRESS.... two years ago she was stage 2 and 3 in all areas except language. Today, she is stage 4-5 in ALL areas. Yeah Son-Rise Program, Yeah Emma yeah US! In addition, WE ARE THE PEBBLE IN THE POND, and we are seeing ripples: there are now at least three professionals locally who DO NOT WORK in Emma's program starting to use The Option Process (taught at The Option Institute) and The Son-Rise Program (taught at the Autism Treatment Center of America): another child is making great strides with The Son-Rise Program techniques, another child has the S-B-R model (Stimulus/Belief/Response you teach) in his treatment plan, and another ripple is a supervisor starting to read your book, HAPPINESS IS A CHOICE. Look at the lives you and Samahria have touched… people you may never meet. I love you both, and continue to be grateful every day, every hour, every second for you and The Option Process and The Son-Rise Program.
Love,
Ellen S., Homemaker & Son-Rise Program Mom, Maine — Daughter: Emma, Age:7, Diagnosis: Sensory Integration Dysfunction
