What ABA therapy looks like in Rollinsville

Rollinsville in Gilpin County is a very small community — about 294 people. It is an unincorporated community — there is no city hall, but neighbors know it by name, and so do we. No town is too small for in-home ABA. We plan visits and telehealth around where you actually live, and we tell you plainly what that looks like for your address.

The nearest Sunbird team is in Lakewood, about 26 miles away. Our Lakewood team travels to homes in Rollinsville, and video check-ins with your BCBA fill the days in between.

Here's what ABA usually looks like in practice: your BCBA observes your child at home and writes a plan, an ABA therapist runs the day-to-day sessions, and you get coaching so progress carries over between visits. How many hours a week? That depends on your child — our guide to how many hours of ABA explains how that gets decided.

Autism and young children in Rollinsville

Rollinsville is home to about 80 kids under 18 — about 80 of them younger than 5 — according to the Census Bureau's latest five-year estimates. The CDC estimates that about 1 in 31 children is autistic. Applied here, that is roughly 3 children in Rollinsville who may be on the spectrum — many of them not yet diagnosed.

Most parents notice something before anyone else does. If you're wondering about your little one, start with the M-CHAT screening explained, or read the signs at age 2. And if you already have a gut feeling, here's what to do next.

Home, daycare or telehealth: what fits Rollinsville families

About 96% of children under 6 across Gilpin County live in homes where every parent works. For a lot of families here, the hours that matter are daycare hours — so we offer daycare-based ABA support, where your child's ABA therapist works alongside the daycare routine, plus in-home sessions for evenings and the skills that belong at home. (Rollinsville is small enough that the county-wide figure is the reliable one.)

About 89% of households across Gilpin County have broadband — most, but not all. If video works at your house, telehealth adds BCBA time between visits. If it doesn't, tell us; we'll plan around your connection instead of the other way around.

Schools and IEPs in Rollinsville

Rollinsville is served by Gilpin County school districts, including Gilpin County School District No. Re-1 (about 408 students across 2 schools). District lines don't always follow town lines, so check your address with the district if you're not sure.

Already working with your school team? Good — bring that IEP or evaluation to us. Your BCBA can shape home goals that support what's happening at school, so your child hears the same expectations in both places.
