About BehaviorSpan - Aurora Center
We are the premier Early Intervention ABA program in the state of Colorado. We are proud to bring this service to children and their families in Denver and Aurora, Colorado. We specialize in effectively teaching children recently diagnosed with Autism and Developmental Delays foundational skills to help them excel, including: communication, social skills, and daily living skills. Our program is exclusively built to help children ages 1-5 yrs old: everything about our centers, highly-trained staff, and clinical model is geared towards providing compassionate, effective care to children. We help children to learn quickly and maximize their ability to utilize learning opportunities as they grow and go to school. The program is based on 4 principles: intervening early; providing each child with individualized care; results-driven treatment; and providing intensive treatment so that later supports aren’t needed. On average, it takes about one year in their program for a child to ‘graduate’- ready to go to school or preschool. While these results aren’t certain for all children, the critical step is to help them learn as many foundational skills as quickly as possible to set them up for a full and happy life.
Our mission is to graduate all children to the education environment by age 5 or 6. We are not here to "fix" children, but to support them with the best possible foundation for a fulfilling life. We are here partner with our families and help them reach their goals and dreams.
The BehaviorSpan - Aurora Center Difference
Our program is different from most ABA companies in a few key ways:
1. We put fun and excitement at the center of our clinical model. As explained on a recent article on our website, each of our centers has a large, beautiful playground built specially for the children we work with. We know from years of experience that children that are fun and engaged learn more quickly. Our highly effective clinical model is built around this value.
2. Our clinical model is one-of-a-kind. Over years we built upon successes to develop a highly specialized model that maximizes the outcomes we are able to help children achieve. We have multiple levels of oversight for each clinician to ensure that every moment spend with a child in our center is used to its fullest to teach them. For this reason, we are able to teach our children rapidly and effectively, and graduate them at higher rates than other ABA centers. Children that graduate form the BehaviorSpan program seldom need further ABA services, and often go on to be successful in school. We are proud of our children’s outcomes, and we follow families through their journey for years after services end.

BehaviorSpan offers access to a unique, leading autism therapy based on the Early Intervention Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), which is shown to improve outcomes for children with Autism and Speech Delays. With an approach backed by the most trusted science and an experienced team of child development specialists, BehaviorSpan’s specialized programs focus specifically on helping children to quickly learn to communicate and thrive in their environment. We coordinate with Speech and Language therapies and Occupational Therapy to ensure that the child’s therapy and treatment needs are all met under one roof.
At BehaviorSpan, we deeply believe in the potential and strengths of all children with autism. We work as a highly-trained team to deliver the best care for every child and build a foundation that sets them up to learn and thrive for the rest of their lives.
We were founded by a local Denver husband and wife team dedicated to re-imagining the autism care experience for families. Our goal is to build the highest quality solution for Colorado families.
