Chicago O'Hare
This is the best center for ABA therapy in Chicago, IL. It’s been only 2 months sending my 3 year old son here and he is showing great progress. The office manager, one of the the BCBAs and the BTs are all a great team. You know your child is in good hands when you receive services from CARD. My son loves the BTs and they are all vibrant and energetic, passionate to work, professional, knowledgeable and kids naturally want to be with them.

CARD is a place that has helped many children/adults in many ways and I’m so thankful to be a part of their team. I can say from experience that CARD is a place that families can feel safe leaving their child and families can be confident that their child is getting the therapy they need. I personally love seeing the growth of old and new clients and again am so grateful to be a part of that change.

Can't beat the staff! The dedication to the children and their success is quite remarkable; which is why I'm making these remarks. 😉
Each child is supported not only by there one on one technician but the Therapy staff comes together to create an environment in which both, the client and their fellow colleagues are supported in achieving your goals.
All in all, an excellent place to advance your child's growth in communication, independence and safety skills, to name a few, while also being a safe, nurturing space that leaves you with the confidence too entrust them with your loved one.
