What is ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis)? Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a proven, science-based approach to understanding and improving behavior. At its core, ABA focuses on helping individuals develop important life skills by breaking them down into small, manageable steps and using positive reinforcement to encourage progress. It’s a widely recognized and effective method for working with children and adults with developmental disabilities, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Have experience working with children but no prior experience with ABA? No problem! We provide comprehensive training to help you learn the techniques, tools, and strategies you’ll need to thrive in this role. All you need is prior experience working with children (personal or professional), a passion for helping others, a desire to make a difference, and a willingness to grow!
