Abilities First Home and Community Services (Community Habilitation, Respite, Family Support Services)

At Abilities First Home and Community Services we offer Community Habilitation, Respite, and Family Support Services. If you’re wondering if your child needs speech therapy, it’s important to know that it is often recommended for autistic children since many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. Even if your child is very verbal, they may need to work on communication skills like responding to questions, starting or ending conversations, changing topics, using gestures, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is a big focus in early intervention and so, it’s important to teach language and communication skills as early as possible, especially if there are any delays in that area. Our guide to speech therapy can help you learn more about what is involved and how it can help your child. If you’re concerned that your child might need speech therapy, contact us at Abilities First Home and Community Services to learn more about our Community Habilitation, Respite, and Family Support Services.

At Abilities First Home and Community Services, we understand how important it is to get the right information about ABA therapy costs. We provide Community Habilitation, Respite, and Family Support Services and are here to help you understand how much ABA therapy may cost and if it is covered by insurance. Generally, insurance will cover ABA therapy if your child has an autism diagnosis. We recommend checking with your specific insurance plan to ensure that ABA is approved for your child’s diagnosis and that the provider you are seeking care from is in-network.
