Get Started with ABA is a free service that connects Lawrence families with vetted, BCBA-led ABA providers. We do not provide therapy ourselves. We listen to your family's needs, share options that fit your situation, and make the first step simpler.

In-home, center-based & telehealth ABA in Lawrence

Families in Lawrence and across Douglas County often have different preferences for where therapy happens. Some prefer in-home sessions, where a therapist works within the daily routines of home, school-age siblings, and family life. Others find that center-based programs offer structured peer interaction and a dedicated learning environment. Telehealth ABA is another option, particularly useful for families who live farther from the city center or who want flexibility around busy schedules.

When you contact us, we will help you think through which format suits your child's age, goals, and your household. Our matched providers can speak with you about availability in the Lawrence area and what a typical week of services might look like.

ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Kansas

Many ABA services are covered by private health insurance plans, and Kansas residents may also qualify for coverage through KanCare, the state's Medicaid managed care program. Coverage details vary by plan and by individual eligibility, so we recommend confirming benefits with your insurer or with KanCare before beginning services. Our matched providers can help explain what your plan may cover and what documentation is usually needed.

Because our matching service is free, you will not pay us for the connection. Costs for therapy itself depend on your coverage and each provider's billing practices, and a provider can review those details with you before services start.

What ABA therapy can support

ABA is commonly used to support a wide range of skills, and each plan is individualized to the child. Goals are chosen with families and reviewed over time so that progress stays meaningful and relevant to daily life.
