HANDS Center for Autism

They serve families across the state with evidence-based, scientifically backed therapeutic services and support for parents and caregivers. At HANDS, the approach focuses on assent-based care, prioritizing each child's autonomy while building skills that generalize across settings. Their experienced, board-certified clinical team is committed to helping children with autism strengthen communication, develop life skills, and gain independence. HANDS maintains 100% clinical support from on-site BCBAs, and their BCBAs collaborate with other providers involved in each child's care as part of an integrated care model. Families receive ongoing clinical communication and parent training to support their child at home. HANDS has multiple locations in North Carolina, including Cary, Charlotte, Holly Springs, North Raleigh, Wilmington, and West Cary.
