At Kennedy Krieger Institute, we believe in the power of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. ABA is rooted in the science of learning and behavior, helping individuals develop communication, social, and daily living skills. We strive to promote independence and reduce harmful behaviors through ABA therapy. If you’re interested in learning more about ABA therapy, Kennedy Krieger Institute has everything you need to know.

At Kennedy Krieger Institute, we understand that it can be a difficult decision to make for your family to try Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) for your child. While ABA has been proven to help improve communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors, it’s important to be aware of providers who may be seeking to “cure” autism with their services. At Kennedy Krieger Institute, we are dedicated to providing high quality ABA therapy that helps people learn to their potential while embracing their unique individual personalities, rather than seeking to “fix” or change who they are. Check out our comprehensive guide to starting and ending ABA therapy to help you make the best decision for your family.

At Kennedy Krieger Institute, we understand that the cost of ABA therapy can be a common concern. Our guide to ABA therapy provides an overview of the costs associated with this type of therapy, including insurance coverage and potential out-of-pocket expenses. We also provide information on how to find an in-network provider, as well as tips for seeking financial assistance if needed. When considering ABA therapy for your child, please contact us for more information about our comprehensive services and how we can help.
