Whether you live near the village center or in the surrounding rural areas, there are options designed to fit your schedule and your child's needs.

We recommend checking your specific plan, but most major insurers provide coverage.

Illinois' public healthcare program, including Medicaid and All Kids, also covers ABA therapy when deemed medically necessary.
