Today, ABA Centers of New Jersey hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony in Mount Laurel, NJ, to unveil its first autism care center in the state. This clinic will provide diagnostic and autism care services to the children of Burlington County and the greater South Jersey communities.
ABA Centers of New Jersey provides applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy services to children with autism through a play-based approach rooted in positive reinforcement. The organization was founded to disrupt the autism care industry by demolishing wait times traditionally experienced by those in search of a diagnosis or treatment. It’s common for families to be waitlisted from many months to several years to receive these services for their children, but ABA Centers of New Jersey typically has a child in therapy within 47 days from the time initial contact is made with the organization.
“The services that we provide are helping more than just that child on the spectrum; we are helping the entire home and the ripple effect of the work that we do here permeates throughout the entire community,” stated Kadonah Coburn, Executive Director of the ABA Centers of New Jersey clinic in Mount Laurel. “Whatever is needed, there is a team of people here that can assist the families in any way that their child needs.”
This autism care clinic offers an expansive 13,000 square feet for individualized autism therapy services to take place. The strategically designed center provides children with a vibrant, immersive, and engaging environment to receive the therapy lessons that will help them navigate life on the spectrum and teach them the tools to achieve a robust and fulfilling future.
“We see a lot of people in our county that need autism services and we are really happy to have ABA Centers of New Jersey here as a community partner,” said Allison Eckel, Commissioner for Burlington County.
Michael Zupko, Legislative Director to Assemblywoman Carol Murphy, presented the clinic with a certificate of recognition on behalf of Assemblywoman Murphy.
ABA Centers of New Jersey’s Mount Laurel autism care center is located at 15000 Commerce Parkway, Suite C, Mount Laurel Township, NJ. The organization has plans to open seven more autism care clinics in New Jersey through 2025.
