About ABA Centers of America

ABA Centers of America is a healthcare innovator experiencing steady growth while revolutionizing the autism care field. We provide ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) therapy and diagnostic services to our clients and families in our centers, in homes, and in the community.

Listed by Inc. magazine as the 5th fastest-growing private company in the U.S., we are focused on opening new clinics and remaining self-funded without private equity investment. We’re also named in Inc.’s Best in Business list for “Health Services,” honoring companies that have made an extraordinary impact in their fields and on society.

We are currently in 10 states with over 30 clinical service areas, and our roadmap will bring us to more than 50 clinical service areas over the next 12-24 months. We have the resources and talent usually found at a more mature organization, including fully staffed teams to support marketing, IT, accounting, and clinic growth.
