A Word From the Director

"I have dedicated the last 15 years of my career to children and families affected by Autism. For these experiences I will be eternally grateful. Parents of children with Autism have taught me the meaning of unconditional love, dilligence and hope. Their children have provided me with moments of joy, quandary, laughter and tears. It has been an absolute privilege to be present for the 'first words' and other accomplishments of these children and their dedicated parents. Every success for these children has been the result of countless hours of therapy, sleepless nights for the parents, and the committment of the community. These children can learn, they will contribute, but they need the intervention and specialized education services. Their parents need the peace of mind that comes with knowing that others care and believe in their children. Advance Kids subscribes solely to the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis. We apply the science of Applied Behavior Analysis by designing programs that are individualized and account for family needs and constraints."
