Noticed a Delay? Acting Early Is the Most Powerful Step You Can Take
A young child’s brain is most adaptable before age 5, which is exactly why early therapy works so well. In New York, families can also use the free, county-run Early Intervention Program for children under 3. ABS is a private, insurance-based alternative: you choose us, we start quickly, and care continues past age 3.
Why Starting Early Changes Outcomes
Before age 5, a child’s brain builds language and social skills faster than at any other time and they’re far easier to teach while that window is open. Early ABA breaks big goals into small, teachable steps and reinforces them through play. It won’t “cure” autism, but it builds real communication and independence, often meaning less support later.
What It Costs and How Insurance Works
ABS is in-network with most major plans and accepts Medicaid, so for many New York families early intervention is covered with little to no out-of-pocket cost. Our in-house team verifies your benefits before you start, no surprises. You may also qualify for New York’s free Early Intervention Program if your child is under 3; we’ll tell you when that’s worth exploring.
