Under 3? Start with early intervention too
Early intervention for children under 3 runs through the Howard County Infants and Toddlers Program. It is free, it can run alongside ABA, and we can help you get both started.
School-age? Know the two evaluation paths
the Howard County Public School System (HCPSS) evaluates for school services through Child Find and an IEP. Insurance-covered ABA needs a medical diagnosis, which is separate. Most families do both, and we coordinate with the school with your consent.
Need a diagnosis first?
Families near Ellicott City most often get evaluated at Kennedy Krieger Institute in Baltimore. Waits can be long, so call us while you wait and we will have insurance verified by the time the report is in.
