Neuro-Affirming, Comprehensive Autism Services Tailored to Your Family's Needs

At ABC of NC, we use evidence-based techniques in a warm and supportive environment to help autistic people build communication, social, play, and academic skills—customized to each child’s unique strengths, preferences, and needs.
At ABC of NC, our philosophy is centered on teaching foundational skills within an engaging, supportive, and neuro-affirming environment that honors each child’s unique strengths, communication style, and way of experiencing the world. We encourage children to build meaningful connections through play and interaction with their teachers, while respecting their individuality and autonomy.
ABC of NC’s unique approach includes a balanced and developmentally-appropriate program that covers communication, play, social, self-help, and academic skills.

All intervention activities, including social skills, are data-based.

These data are used to revise and redesign programs as needed to ensure each child’s continued progress. The ABC of NC team is unparalleled in enthusiasm and expertise and is dedicated to the highest standards of education in order to provide the best outcomes for its students.

Student goals are based on curricula and assessments such as:

  • Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement Program (VB-MAPP)
  • Assessment of Basic Language and Learning Skills-Revised (ABLLS-R)
  • Structured Play Assessment
  • Pictorial Infant Communication Scales (PICS)
  • Autism Social Skills Profile
