LINKS opened as an autism school in September 2023 after operating as an educational therapy practice since 2016. We build reading, math, writing and comprehension support into the school day and adapt learning around students' needs, IEP goals and accommodations. Speech and occupational therapists visit our campus and work with our team; these services have additional fees. We also partner with ABA LA for applied behavior analysis and classroom support from a board-certified behavior analyst. Academic assessments help establish starting skill levels and review progress.
