They are committed to serving clients regardless of their funding source.<\/p>\n<p>Stride\u2019s empathetic and highly skilled clinical team relies on a thoughtful approach based on Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. ABA therapy is widely considered to be the most well-supported and optimal treatment for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder.<\/p>\n<p>One of the biggest advantages of Stride\u2019s program is that it offers personalized support and guidance during a child\u2019s most critical time of development (ages 2-6). As a means of giving each child the care and attention they deserve, Stride keeps a 1:1 therapist-to-child ratio. Their refined center-based model enables children with autism to develop and improve communication and social skills while engaging with peers and participating in fun and educational group activities.<\/p>\n<p>To be effective and deliver the best results possible, Stride has its Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) put together treatment plans meticulously customized for each child that enrolls in the program.<\/p>\n<p>Brad Zelinger, Stride\u2019s Founder and CEO, explained that \u201cStride\u2019s mission to provide the best possible support to children with autism and their families is deeply personal to me. My sister has an autism-related disorder called Rett Syndrome. She is nonverbal, and requires substantial support in everyday activities. I founded Stride so individuals like her can get the effective therapy they need as early as possible to live more independent, joyous lives. As a Midwesterner myself, I\u2019m particularly motivated to bring Stride\u2019s services to underserved communities throughout the Midwest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Discussing their program, Stride\u2019s Clinical Director and University Chair of ABA at the Chicago School of Professional Psychology, Dr. Ashley Whittington-Barnish, PhD, LCP, BCBA-D, NCSP commented that \u201cDecades of research demonstrating the effectiveness of early intervention for children with autism underlie our decision to specialize in the early treatment of young learners.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur mission-driven team is incredibly motivated by Stride\u2019s unwavering commitment to meaningful outcomes. We\u2019re grateful that our singular focus on the highest quality care has allowed us to attract outstanding clinical leaders and therapists alike,\u201d Dr. Whittington-Barnish also stated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Stride Autism Centers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/stridecenters.com\/\">Stride Autism Centers<\/a> is a mission-focused organization that provides evidence-based ABA therapy to preschool-age children with autism.
