What Springfield families should know
Springfield is Missouri's third-largest city, and Springfield Public Schools is the largest school district in the state, so school evaluations and IEP support are close at hand.

Under 3? Start with early intervention too
Early intervention for children under 3 runs through Missouri First Steps, the state's program for children under 3. It is free, it can run alongside ABA, and we can help you get both started.
School-age? Know the two evaluation paths
Springfield Public Schools, the largest district in Missouri 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.
