How can ABA help my child?
ABA can support your child in developing essential learning, social, language, and independence skills. It is also effective in reducing challenging behaviors that can impact their ability to fully participate in the community. Additionally, ABA helps with self-management, fine and gross motor skills, toilet training, food aversions, and increasing independence in self-feeding.
