The Autism Clinic (TAC) provides services for individuals with autism, including ABA therapy, speech therapy, social skills groups, and diagnostics. TAC’s intervention services are designed to help children develop a wide range of skills within naturalistic and structured activities, including communication, social, play, leisure, and academic skills. Through the Preschool ABA Program, children participate in typical routines to increase readiness for the school setting, including circle time, structured play with peers, snack time, and small group activities led by therapists. Through the Elementary ABA Program, children participate in age-appropriate lessons and learn from others through board games, dramatic play, and conversations volleys. Each child in TAC’s programs receives individualized programming based on ongoing assessment and treatment planning by a team of licensed behavior analysts and speech-language pathologists. TAC is in network with most major health insurance providers, and will work with families to determine eligibility. Learn more about The Autism Clinic at http://theautismclinic.org

It's a big decision to make for your family! Applied behavior analysis (ABA) seeks to improve communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors. Watch out for ABA providers who look to "cure" autism.
High quality ABA therapy does exist where the goal is not to “fix” children, make them appear “less autistic”, or change who they are. The goal is to help people learn all that they can so they can live to their potential while embracing their unique, individual personality traits. Here's our complete guide to start and end ABA therapy.
ABA is usually covered by insurance if you have an autism diagnosis. Autism is typically the only diagnosis insurance will authorize for ABA services since its benefits have been researched extensively.
Always check with your specific insurance plan to confirm that ABA is covered for your child’s diagnoses and that the provider you are seeking care at is in-network. Here's our complete guide to everything you need to know about ABA therapy.
Even if a provider offers parent training, it may look different from one provider to another. For example, an in-home provider might conduct a parent training session directly following a therapy session with your child to help explain what they’ve been working on with your child. At larger organizations, you might have a support group of families who are dealing with similar issues.
