We are not a clinic or provider. Our role is to listen to your needs and match you with trusted local ABA programs that fit your family's schedule, location, and budget. Many of these providers accept insurance and Colorado's Medicaid program (Health First Colorado), as well as private plans that follow the state's autism insurance mandate.
ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Colorado
Colorado requires most private health insurance plans to cover medically necessary autism treatments, including ABA therapy, thanks to the state's autism insurance mandate (HB 08-1152). This means many families in El Paso County can use their private insurance to help pay for services.
For families without private insurance, Colorado's Medicaid program - Health First Colorado - also covers ABA therapy for eligible children. Additionally, Early Intervention Colorado (Part C) supports families with children under three who are at risk for developmental delays, often coordinating with ABA providers.
In-home, center-based & telehealth ABA in El Paso County
El Paso County families have choices when it comes to ABA delivery settings. In-home ABA allows a therapist to work with your child in your own environment - helpful for building skills in natural routines. Center-based ABA takes place in a structured clinic setting, often with peer interaction and access to more resources. Telehealth ABA is also available through some providers, offering remote supervision or direct therapy sessions for families who prefer or need flexible options.
Many providers in Colorado Springs and surrounding areas offer a blend of these settings. Your match can be customized to your family's preferences, whether you live near downtown Colorado Springs, out east toward Falcon, or up north near Monument. We'll help you compare options so you can choose what fits best.
