About
They support children with autism through early intervention in PA and offer in-home autism services. Their mission is to establish trust with each child by using interest-based activities, creative expression, and encouragement. They respect each child's unique identity and build their treatment plan based on their unique skills, aspirations, and needs. Helping Hands Family's evidence-backed autism therapy has helped children hit their milestones in communication, social skills, focus, and learning readiness. They encourage family involvement by setting up regular sessions to teach parents how to incorporate their child's autism treatment at home. With a focus on play-based and child-led therapy, Helping Hands Family's clinical team uses toys and games that incorporate fun into every session. They have earned a 100% accreditation from the Behavioral Health Center of Excellence and are certified by the Council of Autism Service Providers.
