What ABA therapy looks like across Graham County
Graham County is frontier country — about 2,406 people across 899 square miles, fewer than 3 people per square mile. Families here know better than anyone how far the nearest specialist can be. We don't pretend the map is smaller than it is; we plan around it with in-home visits and telehealth. The county seat is Hill City.
Graham County families don't have to drive to a clinic. Our ABA team comes to you — at home or at daycare — with BCBA coaching by video in between visits.
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.

In-home, daycare or telehealth ABA in Graham County
About 87% of households across Graham 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.
ABA therapy, schools and IEPs in Graham County
Public schools across Graham County are run by one district: USD 281 Graham County (about 419 students across 2 schools).
If your child has an IEP (or an IFSP for little ones), share it with your BCBA. When home goals and school goals line up, kids make progress faster and get less mixed messaging. Bring the latest evaluation reports to your first meeting, too — they save time and repeat testing.
