About
Based in Riverside, CA, ACT provides in-home, school, clinic, and community-based services for individuals from infancy to adulthood who are at risk of developing a disability, have a diagnosis within the Autism Spectrum Disorders, Intellectual Disability, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Seizure Disorder, and related special needs. Their services are based on the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), the most scientifically-validated approach for changing behavior.
