What ABA therapy looks like in Wilmore

Wilmore in Comanche County is a very small community — about 37 people. 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.

Wilmore is about 105 miles from our Wichita team — the far edge of where we work. We won't promise a schedule we can't keep: call us, tell us your town, and we'll give you a straight answer about in-home visits, telehealth, and what a realistic start looks like.

ABA here works the same way it does everywhere we serve: a BCBA-led plan written for your child, one-on-one sessions with an ABA therapist, and regular coaching for you. New to all of this? Start with what ABA therapy actually is, then what to expect at the first session.

Autism and young children in Wilmore

Census estimates count about 7 children under 18 in Wilmore, including about 0 under age 5. The CDC estimates that about 1 in 31 children is autistic. In a community this size, that may mean just one or two families — which is exactly why parents here can feel alone. You are not.

ABA isn't only for toddlers. For school-age kids in Wilmore, goals often center on communication, managing big feelings, daily routines and getting along with friends. Wondering how ABA fits with other therapies? See ABA vs. speech therapy.

Home, daycare or telehealth: what fits Wilmore families

About 84% of households across Comanche 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 Wilmore

Wilmore is served by Comanche County school districts, including USD 300 Comanche County (about 319 students across 3 schools). District lines don't always follow town lines, so check your address with the district if you're not sure.

School and ABA work best as partners. If your child has an IEP or evaluation from the district, send it along with your intake — it helps your BCBA write goals that back up the school plan instead of competing with it.
