Raise your hand if you've ever seen (or written) this goal.

Child will request wants and needs with 80% accuracy.

I know I sure have!

The same idea, written as a rubric

For years, I felt stuck writing goals in the traditional format I was handed, wondering why it never felt quite right for my autistic students.

Rubric-based communication goals changed everything for me, and I know they will for you, too!

That's exactly what The Goal Studio was created to help you do: write better communication goals for autistic children in a fraction of the time.

None of that is because you're bad at this.

Most of us were taught one way to write a goal. Pick a skill, attach a percentage, count right and wrong responses. But we can't know what a child wants from outside their body. And an accuracy percentage won't show the small steps that add up to real progress for autistic kids.

Goal Studio walks you through 4 simple steps to create your rubric goal and data sheets.

Step 01

Figure out where to start

The interactive skill decision tree walks you through nine areas of communication, one question at a time.

No more staring at a list wondering what matters most. You answer what you've seen, and you come out with a short list of potential targets for your student.

Step 02

Hear from the people who know them best

Fillable family, team and intake questionnaires, ready to send.

You send them from your own secure email, and the answers come straight back to you. Now your goal can reflect home and every other place the child spends time, along with what you see in therapy.

Step 03

Build the goal

Pick from a growing bank of 200+ communication skills across 27 areas. Search it, star your favorites, or add your own skills.

Then choose how you'll measure progress: level of support; frequency (as a percent); frequency (as a count); an individualized hierarchy, built for the child; or generalization across settings and people.

The Goal Studio puts it together for you: the goal, the objectives, the rubric levels and the specially designed instruction. Copy it straight into your report, or download a professionally designed PDF.

Step 04

Download the Data Sheets.

Once you've written your goal, your individualized data sheets can be created in one click. Data sheets are generated in two options: printable and fillable PDFs. We offer several different data sheet formats so that you can find the one that works best for you and your student.

Every goal and data sheet you make is saved in My Goals, along with any skills you've added. When the next child with a similar profile comes along, you don't start from a blank page.

Nicole Casey sitting on the floor with a child during a play session.

Hi, I'm Nicole Casey, The Child-Led SLP.

For over 12 years, I've been on the floor with autistic kids, following their lead, laughing at their jokes, and celebrating every new way they find to tell me something.

But for a long time, I'd walk out of a session I loved and sit down to try to fit everything I saw into an "80% accuracy" box. It never matched what happened in the room, and it bothered me every single time.

So I stopped writing goals that way. My rubric-based framework came out of that frustration, and The Goal Studio is the tool I wish someone had handed me years ago: the whole process, step by step, so you can spend less time on paperwork and more time with the kids.

I truly can't wait for you to write your first goal in it and feel that "oh, this is what I actually do" moment. It's honestly my favorite part.

Is the Goal Studio for you?

It's for you if:

  1. You are a speech-language pathologist working with autistic children
  2. You work in a school, an outpatient clinic, private practice, early intervention or somewhere in between.
  3. You believe all communication is valid (speech, AAC, gestalts, gestures, movement) and want goals that reflect your neuroaffirming values
  4. You want a clear process you can repeat for every autistic child on your caseload.
