School-Based Services

ABAS contracts with schools and school districts to provide medically necessary 1:1 ABA services for students in the school setting. An assigned behavior technician works with the student during the school day, under the supervision of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), keeping clinical programming consistent between home and school.

A school program may be comprehensive or focused. What it covers comes from the learner's assessment rather than from where sessions happen. See the types of ABA we provide.

How school-based services are funded

School-setting ABA is typically provided under a student's IEP through the school district. Depending on the student, services may also be funded through state programs, federal programs, or the student's health insurance. Insurance-funded services are covered when medically necessary and prior-authorized. We work with the school and the family to determine the right funding pathway for each student.
