Action Behavior Centers Academy
ABC Academy is specifically designed for school-age children ages 6–13 with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In this program, children receive personalized applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy that can help them grow their social and executive functioning skills and achieve success in school.

Flexible hours for busy families
We understand that your family is busy and has diverse and dynamic demands. At ABC Academy, we extend our operating hours beyond the traditional school day to accommodate your schedule. These extended therapy hours allow your child to attend school while accessing the ABA therapy they need.
Steps to enroll in after-school ABA therapy
Enrolling your child in ABC Academy is a step toward a bright future. To qualify, your child must be 6–12 years old and have a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder. Getting started is a straightforward process:
Clinical recommendation
Children can enter ABC Academy directly. However, if a child is already receiving ABA therapy at Action Behavior, their current care team must clinically recommend a transition to ABC Academy. This process is done in close consultation with the ABC Academy clinical team to ensure that it is the most appropriate care setting for your child’s needs.
Family consultation
Parents and caregivers then meet with our dedicated ABC Academy care team to discuss their child's needs and learn more about after-school ABA therapy.
Begin ABC Academy
Our expert team helps your child transition smoothly into ABC Academy. We make every effort to help them feel comfortable and welcome.
To make sure your child has the best outcomes, it's important that families who join ABC Academy are committed to following the clinically recommended weekly schedule. We require a one-year commitment to the program, as long as ABA therapy is considered appropriate for their needs.
Insurance coverage
For existing Action Behavior families, your child’s current insurance authorization will transfer seamlessly to ABC Academy. No additional paperwork is required for insurance approvals. Clinical authorizations will be re-evaluated every six months to ensure continued support.
