Mission Accomplished!
It is no easy feat finding the right place to get the applied behavior analysis (ABA) services your child needs, but you did it! You want only the very best treatment for your child, and so do we! Behavior Frontiers’ professional and compassionate team has been providing superior quality ABA service to clients and their families since 2004 – that’s more than 18 years -- and all that experience has shown that our accurate implementation of scientifically proven ABA methods makes a positive difference in the lives of individuals with autism and other special needs – we’ve got the data to prove it!
Our professional and highly skilled staff is NOW available to conduct intake assessments, either in-person or through telehealth, with your family to begin the treatment process. Please contact us at 818.650.1901 to find out more about our services and to schedule an initial appointment.
Behavior Frontiers has enhanced our policies and procedures regarding the delivery of our ABA services, including, limiting staff in clients’ homes, adhering to CDC guidelines for safety and social distancing requirements for center-based services, and offering telehealth services. We also require employees and clients to cancel sessions if they exhibit any symptoms of COVID-19, as well as provide detailed protocols for clients and employees who have tested positive for COVID-19. We believe that these safety procedures have helped to reduce the risks of exposure in providing ABA services.

School District Services
Behavior Frontiers is also certified by the California Department of Education as a nonpublic agency to provide behavior intervention design (BID) and behavior intervention implementation (BII) to school-aged children with autism and other special needs. A BID staff member is essentially the behavior supervisor who assesses the student’s behavioral needs and who designs a behavior intervention plan for the student. A BII staff member is the equivalent of a behavior instructor who works one-to-one with the student to carry-out the behavior intervention plan. Both staff members are essential for a student to receive effective ABA services.
