Autism Therapy & ABA Services
How We Help
We’re Here to Support You Navigate the World of Autism
Raising a child with autism isn’t always a simple journey. There’s no manual to follow. Figuring out how to help your child succeed in school and in life can feel daunting. We can make it easier.
The Wisconsin Early Autism Project (WEAP) began more than 25 years ago as the first provider of applied behavior analysis (ABA) in the state of Wisconsin. We’ve grown to become a world-renowned leader in early diagnosis and treatment for children with autism.
Our evidence-based approach to care has helped thousands of children with autism enjoy fuller and more meaningful lives. We walk families through treatment options every day.
We’re also part of LEARN Behavioral, a collective group of ABA providers dedicated to nurturing the unique potential of children with autism. Our version of ABA, which we refer to as contemporary ABA, treats every child as unique and considers family and caregivers a core part of treatment.
At WEAP, we’re with you every step of the way.

What You Can Expect
Not all ABA providers are created equally. At WEAP, we tailor treatment to your child’s individual needs. We use contemporary ABA therapy, combined with clinical insights and best practices refined over more than 25 years of serving the autism community in Wisconsin. This highly personalized, client-centered model of care differs from other providers, who take a more systematic, therapist-directed approach.
Offering different treatment settings allows us to work with your child on a variety of goals. These learning environments can include:
 |
Your home |
 |
Your community |
 |
One of our Learning Centers |
 |
Our Youth Club Programs |
 |
Our Outpatient Counseling |
 |
Our telehealth |
The best part? Our services work.
On average, most children make meaningful progress. About a third make so much progress in the first 18 months of treatment that we can recommend fewer treatment hours going forward.
