Abstract

One symptom of ASD condition is the barrier in language so that it affects the ability of children in verbal communication (verbal / speech) and nonverbal (gestures and writing). The existence of ASD children in a family requires parents to immediately intervene as early as possible so that the development of language and communication in children can be achieved according to age. In reality, not all parents with ASD children realize the importance of early intervention. This study aims to formulate an early intervention program with family resources in optimizing the ability of expressive communication in children with autism. The method used in this study was a case study and descriptive data analysis. The subject of this study was a family that had ASD children in one city in West Java Province, namely in West Bandung Regency. The technique sample in this study was purposive, namely the determination of sample based on certain criteria. Data collection was carried out through observation, interview, and documentation. The results of this study are the formation of an early intervention program with family resources that includes an increase in family understanding of the conditions of child development and the needs of children so that parents have the competence in optimizing the ability of expressive communication in ASD children.
