What ABA therapy looks like across Logan County
Logan County is rural: about 21,067 people across 1,839 square miles, or roughly 11 people per square mile. Specialty care for kids has traditionally meant long drives out of the county. Our model is built the other way around — therapy comes to your home, and your BCBA stays in touch by video between visits. The county seat is Sterling.
When you call from Logan County, you're matched with our team that serves your area. They come to your home or daycare, and your BCBA checks in by video between sessions.
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 therapy for kids and families in Logan County
Logan County is home to about 3,800 kids under 18 — about 1,000 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 124 children across Logan County who may be on the spectrum — many of them not yet diagnosed.
For the 1,000 youngest children across Logan County, timing matters. Plain-English checklists: signs at 18 months, signs at age 3. No diagnosis yet? That's fine — we'll help you get one.
School-age kids benefit too — ABA can target the things that make the school day and evenings hard: transitions, communication, self-care, and handling frustration. Read how ABA and speech therapy work together, and our honest take on whether ABA is harmful.
In-home, daycare or telehealth ABA in Logan County
About 68% of children under 6 across Logan 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.
About 86% of households across Logan 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.
