About
They offer in-home autism services and have locations in Connecticut, including Trumbull. Their mission is to help children with autism reach their milestones in communication, social skills, focus, and learning readiness. They use a play-based approach to teach new skills, such as communication, social interaction, and problem solving, and incorporate therapy into a child's favorite activities to increase enjoyment and motivation. Helping Hands Family respects each child's unique identity and builds their treatment plan based on their unique skills, aspirations, and needs. They also encourage family involvement and provide regular sessions to teach parents how to incorporate their child's autism treatment at home. The practice has earned a 100% accreditation from the Behavioral Health Center of Excellence and has received the Great Place to Work certification every year in the past 4 years.
