“Coverage and provider limitations exist in both public and private sectors. As a result, individuals with autism are not always able to receive the necessary health care they need to address their acute and long-term developmental, social and behavioral health care needs across their lifespan.” (Autism Speaks, 2024)

Thousands of families are waiting months—sometimes years—for ABA services for their children with autism. Every day that passes is a missed opportunity for growth.

Training and Support for Parents of Children with Autism

In our work with families affected by autism over the past nine years, we have been committed to a higher rate of parent training than what is typically offered by ABA providers. That's why we've spent the past few years developing a comprehensive parent training program for many of our families.

Because of the benefits we have seen from our services, we are now offering our training to parents throughout Massachusetts.

We provide support for parents of children newly diagnosed with autism through adulthood, offering training based on the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis.

Get Started Today
We are interested in speaking with parents of children (of any age) diagnosed with autism who are currently on waiting lists for ABA services.

Giving Families Confidence to Move Forward

The law in Massachusetts requiring health insurance carriers to provide access to care for individuals with autism is strong. However, the reality of access to care for families impacted by autism is far less encouraging. Currently, waitlists for Applied Behavior Analysis services across the state may be three to sixteen months, with some areas in the state having no access to care at all.

At Coastal ABA, we are committed to increasing access to ABA services for families across the Commonwealth.

“Commitment isn’t about being perfect, always following through, or never going astray. Commitment means that when you (inevitably) stumble or get off track, you pick yourself up, find your bearings, and carry on in the direction you want to go.”

“Your values are reflections of what is most important in your heart: what sort of person you want to be, what is significant and meaningful to you, and what you want to stand for in this life. Your values provide direction for your life and motivate you to make important changes.” -Russ Harris, The Happiness Trap
