About Stride autism centers
Stride Autism Centers: Providing Comprehensive ABA Therapy for Children with Autism
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder that affects communication, social interaction, and behavior. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 1 in 54 children in the United States has been diagnosed with ASD. While there is no cure for autism, early intervention and evidence-based therapies can significantly improve outcomes for children with ASD.
Stride Autism Centers is a leading provider of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy services for children with autism. With locations in Chicago and Clive, Stride Autism Centers offers comprehensive treatment programs designed to meet the unique needs of each child.
What is ABA Therapy?
ABA therapy is an evidence-based approach to treating autism that focuses on teaching new skills and behaviors while reducing challenging behaviors. The goal of ABA therapy is to help individuals with autism achieve their full potential by improving communication, socialization, self-care, academic performance, and other important life skills.
At Stride Autism Centers, our team of highly trained Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) works closely with each child's family to develop an individualized treatment plan based on their specific needs and goals. Our ABA therapy programs are tailored to each child's age, developmental level, strengths, challenges, interests, and learning style.
Our Approach
At Stride Autism Centers we believe that every child deserves access to high-quality ABA therapy services regardless of their location or financial situation. That's why we offer both center-based and home-based ABA therapy options at our Chicago & Clive locations.
Our center-based programs provide a structured learning environment where children can receive intensive one-on-one instruction from our experienced therapists. Our centers are equipped with state-of-the-art facilities designed specifically for children with autism including sensory rooms & outdoor play areas.
For families who prefer home-based services or live too far from one of our centers, we offer in-home ABA therapy programs. Our therapists work with families to create a safe and supportive learning environment in the comfort of their own home.
