Autism Learning Centers
Where kids learn through play
Therapy in a Center-Based Environment
Making Personal Connections
Kids can achieve their goals and learn to make friends at our friendly Learning Centers.
We help children on the autism spectrum explore new opportunities and achieve their personal goals. Here, they learn alongside their peers through play-based activities.
Our Learning Centers aren’t just any learning environment. They’re transformative play spaces. Many of our Learning Centers have sensory gyms, group learning areas, and pretend-play spaces.
Our Learning Centers are designed for contemporary applied behavior analysis (ABA). That means we tailor therapy for your child’s and family’s needs. We focus on providing personalized treatment plans and interventions for kids on the autism spectrum. Our approach to therapy aims to help kids learn important skills and do well in different parts of their lives.
At WEAP, our Learning Centers are unique, play-based environments that make learning fun and engaging. They’re where your child can start on their path to success in school and in life.
Fostering Friendships
All friendships come with their own unique set of challenges. That hurdle can be amplified for children on the autism spectrum. We can help your child learn how to connect with others, even if they develop differently.
At WEAP, we know how important it is to build good relationships to support children with autism. We help them improve their strengths and learn how to make and keep friends. This includes communication, cooperation, and compassion.
Our Learning Centers are safe places where kids can learn social skills and grow emotionally.
Our team of experts includes board certified behavior analysts (BCBAs) and behavior technicians (BTs).
Through group activities and creative play, we help nurture and cultivate young minds. We teach kids on the autism spectrum communication skills that will help them make friends. We also work on adapting to new routines.
Center-based therapy follows these core principles:
1 |
Children thrive in a supportive, learning-rich environment. This is the framework for our Learning Center model. |
2 |
Children learn best through structured teaching and play. That’s why we provide one-on-one and small group instruction. |
3 |
Every child is unique and is at a different stage in their development. We make sure every program is right for each child by tailoring it to their needs. |
4 |
All interventions are evidence-based. We use applied behavior analysis (ABA) principles with guidance from a board certified behavior analyst (BCBA). |
5 |
We’re family-centered. We consider you part of our team. Parents, families, and caregivers are actively involved in planning their child’s treatment. |
With an autism diagnosis, it can feel like a long road ahead. At WEAP, we’re here to help. Our team of experts has assisted countless families in achieving their goals with our resources and services. Wherever you are on your journey, we can help you figure out your next steps.
