At The Arc of South Florida ACE Academy South Campus, we understand that it can be difficult to know if your child needs speech therapy. Our complete guide to speech therapy can help you determine if your child may need assistance. Speech therapy is often recommended for children with autism since many of them have difficulty with social communication. It can help them learn how to respond to questions, start or end conversations, change topics, and understand other people’s body language. Early intervention is critical for language development, so it’s important to start speech therapy as soon as possible. If your child is very quiet, speaks only a few words, or doesn’t speak at all, they may need to work on their communication skills.

At The Arc of South Florida | ACE Academy South Campus, we understand that making the decision to pursue Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy for your child can be a difficult one. We believe that ABA should not be used to “cure” autism or to change who they are, but instead should be used to help children learn, grow, and reach their full potential while embracing their unique personality traits. We have created a guide to help families start and end ABA therapy, so they can make an informed decision about the best course of action for their child.

At The Arc of South Florida ACE Academy South Campus, we understand that it can be difficult to understand the cost of ABA therapy. Generally, the cost of ABA therapy is covered by insurance if you have an autism diagnosis. Autism is typically the only diagnosis that insurance will authorize for ABA services due to its extensive research benefits. Please check with your specific insurance plan to ensure that ABA is covered for your child’s diagnosis, and that the provider you are seeking care from is in-network. To help you navigate the cost of ABA therapy, we’ve created a guide to provide you with all the information you need. Visit The Arc of South Florida ACE Academy South Campus to learn more.
