Reach milestone moments with Action Behavior
Wondering how to get your child tested for autism or where to begin an early autism evaluation? At Action Behavior Centers, we are here to help you navigate the autism evaluation process so your child can access the care they need when they need it.
The first step is completing a simple online autism screening tool for children of all ages. If screening results suggest your child may be at risk for autism, we offer in-person assessments like the ADOS-2 for children ages 18 months to 6 years old. Access to care is important to us, and our autism screenings and ADOS-2 assessments are completed at no cost in the Charlotte, North Carolina, region.
At Action Behavior Centers, our autism services help autistic children learn practical life skills, build independence, and reach milestone moments.

Frequently asked questions
Will my child be sitting at a table all day during ABA therapy?
No way! At ABC, learning happens through a variety of engaging activities. While table time can be part of learning school readiness skills, children also enjoy:
- Circle Time with songs and group learning
- “Eats and Crafts” spaces for hands-on activities
- Group exercise, sensory rooms, and play-based learning
Therapy is designed to be fun, active, and motivating.
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.
What is ABA therapy and how does it work?
Applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy is a gold standard in care for children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It helps children build practical skills and reduce behaviors that may make learning harder. Through ABA therapy, children can improve communication, develop self-care routines, and better manage emotions.
At Action Behavior Centers (ABC), our Board Certified Behavior Analysts® (BCBAs®) and Registered Behavior Technicians® (RBTs®) use positive reinforcement and individualized strategies to support growth. Families are active partners in therapy, working with our clinical team to set goals and track progress.
