Our team at Turning Point Autism Centers provides individualized and essential applied behavior analysis intervention services for young children with autism. Our behavior centers are purposefully designed for 1:1 therapy with schedules tailored for each child we serve. We have developed a therapeutic preschool alternative for our clients with a daily schedule that includes one to one support throughout the day. Our children participate in small group, gross motor, social and individualized therapy activities throughout the day, all with the support of a Registered Behavior Technician 100% of their program day. Our Board Certified Behavior Analysts conduct thorough skills and behavior assessments and then develop individualized therapy programs for each child in our center. Using evidence based and research supported procedures, progress is carefully monitored, and data-based decisions are implemented to support each child’s growth and development.
