Reach milestone moments with ABC
At Action Behavior Centers (ABC), we help children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) reach milestone moments. Compassionate care is at the heart of everything we do, and our highly trained clinicians deliver evidence-based applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy tailored to each child’s unique needs.
Our autism services include evaluation support, 1:1 individualized Early Intensive Behavioral Intervention (EIBI), Family Guidance, and school readiness programs in hundreds of centers across the U.S. And because no family should have to wait for help, ABC offers immediate access to care.

The ABA therapy provided here has been a game changer for my son, who in his own words said "I've learned how to make friends and finally enjoy school." The staff are delightful and knowledgeable, and patiently worked with us as we navigated our own journey through the world of ABA. The staff at ABC gave our family the tools we needed to improve our son's life and ours. It's definitely a team effort and parents need to be willing to put in the investment of learning too, but it's absolutely worth it. We even miss coming here as we had such positive interactions with the staff! Thank you, ABC!
The staff here is on point! I would highly recommend registering in this ABA program. Our son is 4 years old and has shown major improvement since he’s been enrolled (1.5 months). Never have had a bad experience, all of the therapists here are very good with all children from what I’ve witnessed. The director always greets us at the door at drop off and pick up with a very positive attitude. We have really enjoyed the warmth from this center! Our child has progressed very well in the little time that he has attended. Would rate 10 stars if possible! If you’re looking for a kind and compassionate environment for your children, would definitely consider ABC.
This place is a heaven sent! My son was diagnosed with autism 3 years ago. And he is 6 and now has graduated from this wonderful place! Now heading to first grade! Our son and family has always felt supported here. He never wanted to miss a day! We are definitely going to miss this place! Thank you to the ABC Staff for all that you’ve done for my son! If you’re looking for ABA therapy for your loved one look no further, this is the place to go!
Very happy with ABC and all the therapists. They are all so sweet and nice, always willing to help in any way they can. My son loves going to "school" everyday and loves his therapists so much. I always leave with a peace of mind knowing they are taking good care of him and as a parent, that is the most important thing. We are so lucky to be part of the ABC family. I cannot recommend this place enough, absolutely happy with everyone here.

Frequently asked questions
View all FAQs
Is ABA therapy effective for autism?
Yes! Every autistic child is unique, and some children experience more significant progress with ABA therapy than others. However, studies show that children who receive two or more years of intensive behavioral interventions, including ABA therapy, can often participate in school and social activities at the same level as their peers.
Can someone help me understand my ABA insurance benefits?
Yes. ABC has a dedicated team of insurance specialists who handle:
- Verifying your benefits
- Explaining deductibles, copays, and coinsurance
- Submitting paperwork and prior authorizations
- Answering your financial questions
Our goal is to remove barriers so families can focus on milestone moments, not paperwork.
How can ABA therapy help my child?
Every child’s journey is unique, and ABA therapy is personalized to meet your family’s priorities. At ABC, we focus on helping children diagnosed with autism build practical, everyday skills while supporting families along the way.
ABA therapy can help your child grow in:
- Communication: Using words, gestures, or devices to express needs and connect with others
- School readiness: Learning to imitate, follow routines, and build pre-academic skills
- Behavior support: Finding safe, effective ways to meet needs while reducing unsafe behaviors like aggression, self-injury, or elopement
- Social skills: Playing with peers, sharing, and taking turns
- Self-care: Practicing routines like brushing teeth, washing hands, and cleaning up toys
ABC’s clinical research shows strong outcomes: 86% of families report major reductions in challenging behaviors within the first year of therapy, along with continued progress as goals evolve.
Can ABA therapy be done after school or on weekends?
ABC centers are open Monday through Friday during regular business hours. For children ages 5–12, ABC Academy provides after-school support. Hours and locations vary by state, so families can check their local ABC Academy for details.
What are individualized goals in ABA therapy?
Every child’s treatment is personalized. BCBAs® assess each child’s strengths and needs, collaborate with families, and set measurable goals.
Examples of measurable goals include:
- Increasing spoken requests for toys from five to 10 times a day
- Initiating play with peers at least three times daily
- Following handwashing steps in four out of five opportunities
- Identifying 10 new household objects by name
