About Behavioral Innovations:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Behavioral Innovations started almost 20 years ago when founders Lori Russo, Carla Edwards and Billy Edwards, armed with their master\u2019s as Behavioral Analysts, saw a lack of services available to help children diagnosed with autism. They opened the first autism therapy ABA center in Dallas, Texas in 2003 and continued to expand. Behavioral Innovations now serves close to 400 clients across Texas and Oklahoma. As a result, their growing team includes passionate and dedicated personnel such as admissions, insurance, billing, operations and most importantly, a highly skilled clinical staff.<\/p>\n

The new Friendswood center is enrolling clients now. The center will be located at 105 East Shadowbend in Friendswood, Texas.<\/p>\n
