Message From the Founder: 

As a RBT for 5+ years, I have observed the percentage of dependency our families endure with the care of an individual diagnosed with autism. Aba is a service that to enhance skills and much more - which a beautiful thing. However, while working along with individuals, I've witnessed individuals that have elderly guardians, un-tolerating care, etc.  This is what becomes a concern to us. Therefore, we have developed a program that fills in one of many puzzles' pieces to help our autism community more successful. We aim to provide services that support life skills and independency.
