Hi everyone,

I’m researching the differences between in-home and center-based ABA therapy and would appreciate hearing about other families’ experiences. Does receiving therapy at home make it easier for children to practice everyday skills, while a center provides more opportunities for structured activities and social interaction?

When comparing ABA services, what factors should parents consider, including their child’s comfort, individual goals, transportation, and family schedules?

I understand that every child has different needs, so I’m interested in learning how families made this decision.

Which setting worked best for your situation, and what would you recommend considering before choosing?
