How ABS Kids Supports Caregivers Every Step of the Way

If you’re caring for a child with autism, we want you to know you’re not alone on this journey. 

Whether you’re a parent, grandparent, sibling, or self-advocate, your daily acts of love, patience, and determination don’t go unnoticed. We see you, the creative problem-solving, and the hope you carry, even on the tough days. During National Caregivers Month, and every day, we celebrate you. You are the heart of your child’s support team, and at ABS Kids, we’re here to walk alongside you, cheering for every step forward. 

Our promise to you is simple: you belong here. Every family’s path is unique, and every person’s experience matters. That’s why our foundation is family-centered care, shaped by your insights, your comfort, and your goals for your child. You know your child best, and together, we build a care plan that fits your family’s needs, values, and dreams. 

A True Partnership: Family-Centered ABA Therapy 

ABA therapy isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution; it’s a journey we take with you, shaped by real connections and open communication. Our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Behavior Technicians (BTs) are more than therapists—they’re teammates. Together, we celebrate wins of any size, problem-solve challenges, and discover what truly helps your child thrive. 

We don’t expect you to have all the answers. We’re here to support you, explain unfamiliar strategies, and listen when you need to vent or brainstorm. Learning new skills or changing routines can be hard for both you and your child. We’ll guide you through it, always with patience and encouragement, so you can feel confident supporting your child every day. 

Meeting You Where You Are 

Every family is different, and we respect that. That’s why we offer therapy in ways that fit your world, not the other way around. 

• ABA Therapy At Home: There’s comfort in familiar surroundings. Our team comes to you, working with your child in your living room, kitchen, or backyard—wherever growth naturally happens. We coach you in real time, so you can see how small strategies fit into your daily routines. 

• ABA Therapy Centers: Sometimes, a fresh environment or the company of peers can spark new skills. Our centers are welcoming, safe places where your child and you can connect, learn, and grow with the support of our experienced staff and other families on a similar journey. 

• Community Integrations: Life happens out in the community, and so does learning. Whether it’s navigating the grocery store together or building confidence at the park, we help your child and family apply skills in everyday settings. 

Tools, Information, and Real Conversations 

One way we support you is through accessible resources like the M-CHAT-R screener—a quick, free online tool that can help you spot early signs of autism and figure out next steps when you need some direction. From there, we walk with you, helping you find answers, assemble your care team, and unlock the support your family deserves. 

If you live near one of our convenient centers, our clinical psychologists can provide an evaluation for autism diagnosis. It’s the first step in a team approach to your child’s care.   

Our website is full of honest, practical information—from blog stories and our Autism Weekly podcast to FAQs and contact information for real people who want to hear from you. If you need help, encouragement, or just someone who “gets it,” we’re here. 

Sharing Every WOW Moment 

Sometimes progress feels quiet—a new word spoken, a skill practiced, a moment of connection that makes your heart soar. These “WOW moments” are what keep us all going. We cherish every breakthrough, no matter how big or small, and celebrate right alongside you because we know the courage, creativity, and persistence that go into every milestone. 

Standing with You—Always 

Supporting your family goes beyond therapy sessions. We advocate for more accessible autism services, for inclusion, and for celebrating neurodiversity in every community. We fight for a world where every child and adult on the spectrum—and every caregiver—has respect, belonging, and opportunity. 

If you need someone in your corner, ABS Kids is here. Today, on National Caregivers Day, and every day, we see your work. We are deeply grateful for your trust and partnership. You are changing lives—your child’s, your family’s, and, honestly, ours too. Thank you for being you, and for letting us be a small part of your story.
