Applied Behavior Analysis
What is ABA?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a research-backed approach that helps children develop essential life skills such as communication, social interaction, self-care, play, and emotional regulation. ABA therapy uses positive reinforcement strategies to encourage age-appropriate behaviors and support learning in a structured, supportive environment.
At Jumpstart, our ABA team is FTF Approach® Level 1 Certified, reflecting our commitment to modern, compassionate, and evidence-based practices. We focus on creating meaningful outcomes tailored to each child’s unique needs, helping them thrive across settings.
