Avid-ABA

Avid ABA Autism Therapy Centers provides personalized support for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder and their families across Michigan. Formerly Attendant Care Autism Services, the organization grew from an in-home services program and opened its first autism centers in 2019. Its centers serve communities including Chesterfield, Detroit, Flint, Port Huron, Roseville, and Westland, with services also offered across several surrounding areas.

The organization’s services include Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), occupational therapy, speech and language therapy, social skills development, and parent education and consultation. ABA therapy uses intensive one-to-one teaching, positive reinforcement, and instruction in small steps to support learning and encourage appropriate replacement behaviors. Occupational therapy addresses everyday tasks, self-care, motor skills, and visual-perceptual abilities, while speech and language therapy supports communication and articulation. Social skills services help clients communicate, interact in age-appropriate situations, and respond to social cues. Parent involvement is a required part of the ABA treatment package.
