ZIP codes we serve in St. Charles

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
the City of St. Charles School District or the Francis Howell School District, depending on your address 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 St. Charles most often get evaluated at Washington University's Autism Clinical Center on Forest Park Avenue and the Mercy Kids Autism Center in Chesterfield. Waits can be long, so call us while you wait and we will have insurance verified by the time the report is in.
