Autism 101: What families need to know
Navigating an autism diagnosis can feel complicated and emotional — but having the right information can make the journey clearer and less overwhelming. In this webinar, our licensed clinicians walk through the foundations of autism diagnosis, what families can expect throughout the evaluation process, and how support services like ABA therapy can help children thrive.
This session is led by three leaders in the field:
- Claire Schutte, Psy.D., BCBA-D – Vice President of Evaluation & Research\
- Angie Carrillo, Psy.D. – Senior Director of Evaluation Quality & Training
- Shelby Wolf, Ph.D., LP, BCBA-D, NCSP – Assistant Regional Director of Psychology
Whether you're a parent seeking answers, a caregiver wanting clarity, or a professional looking to learn more, this conversation was created to offer direction, compassion, and practical insight.
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 diagnostic support, 1:1 individualized care, parent training, school readiness programs, and Early Intensive Behavioral Intervention (EIBI) across hundreds of centers in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota, North Carolina, and Texas. Because no family should have to wait for help, ABC offers immediate access to care. Contact us today to get started.

How to Help Autistic Children in the Classroom
Starting school is a big step for any child, and for children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), it can come with unique challenges. As a parent, you play a key role in helping your child feel ready and confident before they walk through the classroom doors.

How Long Does ABA Therapy Last?
At ABC, we provide evidence-based ABA therapy in-center for children ages 18 months to 8 years old, and our ABC Academy program serves school-age children ages 5 to 12. One of the most common questions parents ask is: Once my child begins, how long does ABA therapy last? The answer depends on your child’s unique needs and goals.
