Of all of the Autism Centers in Kalamazoo County, why choose Ripple Effects?

🌊Specialized Early Intervention: We prioritize personalized attention, serving only 5 children at a time. Your child gets the individualized, nurturing care and attention they deserve.

🌊Family-Centered Approach: We believe in collaboration. We listen to parents, work together to set goals, and create a supportive environment for both children and families.

🌊Play-Based Learning: Our days are filled with play, inside and outside. We take a child-led approach to teaching, embedding learning goals into the activities your child likes most.

🌊Preschool Inclusion: We participate in Ripple Effects Community Inclusion Center's (soon to be licensed) Preschool Program where early childhood teachers and behavior analysts work together to fade out one-on-one instruction and gradually transition to group activities.

🌊Comprehensive Coordination of Care: We welcome opportunities to connect with your child's other therapeutic and educational providers.

🌊Partnerships for Transition: We build partnerships with public and private schools as well as home school co-ops. Smooth transitions are our priority when specialized services are no longer needed.
