RDA Assessments from Tori Carraway

As a followup to the RDI Workshop, Tori has provided some additional information on how to get an RDA assessment and what steps follow.

Tori is available to do RDA’s. She has (most weeks) part of Thurs. and all of Fri. off. This is time I’ve allotted to do RDAs or review videotapes from families. If you schedule your RDA on a weekend with another family (or families), she would come and do RDA 1 with all the families, then come back the following weekend to do RDA 2 and 3. Please note that she has never traveled to see multiple families, so doesn't really know yet what works best. If planning to see 1 family she would do RDA 1 on Thurs or Fri, RDA 2 on Sat, and RDA 3 on Sat or Sunday, depending on time. Tori will do the RDA for $600.00. Typically what consultants do is have families sign a contract for 6 mos.
However, for out of town families you wouldn’t meet weekly and it would be difficult for you to send tapes weekly. So she plans to draw up a new contract.

If you want though, she can just do RDA 1,2, and 3, or the RDA’s and you send tapes as needed (she is willing to work toward individual family’s needs). Until Tori is certified, she is charging $65.00 per hour. Basically families need to let her know what they need and she would figure the hourly rate $65.00 at that. For the RDA’s she needs an empty room, smaller than the one at the workshop.
