What ABA therapy looks like in Conway Springs
Conway Springs in Sumner County is a small community of about 1,597 people. In a town this size, everybody knows everybody — and families can feel like they are the only ones dealing with autism. You are not, and you don't need to move or drive hours for help.
When you call from Conway Springs, 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.
A typical plan starts with a BCBA assessment at home, then regular one-on-one sessions with an ABA therapist — a trained behavior technician — working from goals your BCBA wrote for your child. You are part of it, too: parent training is built in, because the skills have to work at dinner time, not just during a session. Curious who does what? See who is on your child's team.

Conway Springs is home to about 460 kids under 18 — about 90 of them younger than 5 — according to the Census Bureau's latest five-year estimates.

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 Conway Springs
About 69% of children under 6 across Sumner 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. (Conway Springs is small enough that the county-wide figure is the reliable one.)
About 86% of households in Conway Springs 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.
