In 2017/18, ABC of NC provided services to families from 18 North Carolina counties.

Many children who receive applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy at ABC of NC may be with us for as many 40 hours a week. Through these intensive, often one-on-one sessions, children like Zane work on their coping skills and frustration tolerance. They strengthen their communication skills. They learn how to get along with others. Before ABC of NC, there was nowhere in the area that children could access this concentrated, center-based, autism-specific therapy. Thanks to you, families have a reason to feel optimistic, and children like Zane are right where they need to be — learning, exploring and growing.
