The love our staff have for each other, and our kiddos makes the hardest days better. Without each other we would not be able to help so many families.

The staff here is exceptional. Eager to share their story and experience in a way that is beneficial to everyone in the building.

James C., Lead Behavior Technician

ABS

My favorite thing about my role as a Behavior Technician is the opportunity to work with kids in a neurodiverse environment. It allows for a lot more flexibility and expression. Of course, we have a set routine, but every day is a little bit different. It’s so exciting and fun to work with each of the kids and see their individual abilities and personalities come out.
