Autism Support Now

Autism Support Now is dedicated to empowering children and families affected by autism, particularly focusing on those from underserved communities. Serving children with a range of diagnoses, including language-based learning disabilities and those who are twice-exceptional, the school provides high-quality early behavioral intervention services grounded in the science of applied behavior analysis (ABA). The approach at Autism Support Now emphasizes personalized care through a collaborative model that includes Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs). These professionals work closely with families to address specific behavioral challenges while fostering self-regulation and cognitive skills in a safe environment. Notably, the school prioritizes trauma-informed care, recognizing that many children have faced adverse experiences. With a low student-teacher ratio, strong family partnerships, and a commitment to community collaboration—partnering with institutions like Mercy Children’s Hospital and Washington University School of Medicine—Autism Support Now stands out as a beacon of support. Celebrating milestones such as an impressive percentage of students attending school for the first time demonstrates its impactful role in promoting educational access. The school’s vibrant community events further reinforce its mission of acceptance and awareness, creating an inclusive atmosphere where every child is seen, heard, and valued.
