Abstract
ASD children experience different development with children in general, so that requires special services to optimize children’s development, one of the factors that greatly contributes to determining child development is the family environment in which children live and develop. In certain places, parents of ASD children have not yet realized and understood the conditions of child development which are more likely to lead to ASD conditions so that parents have not been able to provide the best service according to their children’s needs. Delays in intervening have an impact on the progress of children’s development in the future so that the intervention program is the first step to providing the best service for children. There are two objectives in this study, namely to form a family awareness intervention program based on the needs of children and parents. Second, namely to describe the implementation of intervention programs carried out by the family to find out whether parents are able to properly implement the programs that have been prepared. The study was conducted using a qualitative approach, through five stages, namely the selection of cases, preliminary studies, assessment of family conditions and child development, formulating programs, and implementation. The resulting program covers aspects of knowledge, acceptance, and building family intervention skills on the child’s condition. Program implementation shows that through programs that have been implemented, families know and understand the various symptoms of autism in children, and are able to provide interventions that are appropriate to the needs of children.
