Arizona Institute for Autism - Scottsdale

The Arizona Institute for Autism (AIA) is dedicated to providing exceptional clinical care for children and teens diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, serving families across Scottsdale, Gilbert, Mesa, Tempe, and the greater Phoenix metropolitan area. With a mission centered on fostering individual potential, AIA supports learners with various needs, including those with language-based learning disabilities and twice-exceptional students. The school employs a comprehensive approach that integrates evidence-based Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy within a nurturing environment. Programs are designed to enhance critical skills such as social engagement, communication, and academic readiness through individualized care plans tailored to each student's unique strengths and challenges. AIA stands out not only for its low student-to-teacher ratio but also for its commitment to building strong partnerships with families. The facility features sensory-friendly rooms that promote comfort and focus, while community events and parent training sessions foster collaboration and support among families. By accepting a wide range of insurance plans and offering financial assistance options, AIA ensures that quality care is accessible to all families in need.

Our mission is to improve Special Education and strengthen communities in Arizona. We offer clinical services for ages 2-17, diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
