Have questions?

If you’re wondering if your child needs speech therapy, Autism Family Center (AFC) in Champaign can help. Speech therapy is almost always recommended for autistic children, as many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. Speech therapy can help teach effective ways to communicate, and it is important to start as early as possible so your child can learn language and communication skills during the critical period of brain development. Signs that your child may need speech therapy could include being very quiet, saying only a few words, or not speaking at all. For more information, visit AFC’s guide to everything you need to know about speech therapy.

At the Autism Family Center (AFC) in Champaign, we understand the importance of effective communication. Our speech therapists are dedicated to helping your child express their thoughts and feelings, whether it be through verbal speech, gestures, signs, or Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). Our speech therapy services can also help your child develop nonverbal skills, form speech more clearly, comprehend questions, understand facial expressions and body language, and even improve their feeding and swallowing. At AFC, we strive to provide the support your child needs to effectively communicate with the world around them.

At Autism Family Center (AFC) Champaign, we specialize in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. ABA therapy is rooted in the science of learning and behavior and uses principles of ABA to help children and adults learn to improve their communication skills, social skills, and daily living skills while also addressing problematic or challenging behaviors. The primary goal of ABA therapy is to teach helpful skills that promote independence and reduce harmful behaviors. Learn more about ABA therapy with our comprehensive guide.

At the Autism Family Center (AFC) in Champaign, we understand that it can be hard to decide if Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is right for your child. We believe that high quality ABA therapy should seek to improve communication skills and introduce productive habits, while respecting the individual identity and personality of the child. Our complete guide to starting and ending ABA therapy can help you make the best decision for your family.

At Autism Family Center (AFC) in Champaign, we understand how important ABA therapy can be for those with an autism diagnosis. We are here to answer your questions about ABA therapy, including how much it costs. Generally, ABA therapy is covered by insurance if you have an autism diagnosis, however you should always check with your specific insurance plan to confirm that ABA is covered for your child’s diagnosis and that the provider you are seeking care at is in-network. To help you get started, AFC has compiled a comprehensive guide to ABA therapy, so you can make an informed decision about how to best support your child’s needs.
