Description
Verbal Behavior Center for Autism is a not-for-profit center founded by a grassroots movement of parents who have children with autism and faced limited treatment options for their children. VBCA provides therapeutic services to children and families affected by autism by promoting Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) principles and, specifically, verbal behavior therapy techniques. Children with autism undergoing this research-supported treatment have been known to show significant progress toward becoming normalized or mainstreamed into society. VBCA also offers consulting services in families’ homes.
