About the company

GOALS for Autism runs behavioral therapy programs for children, adolescents and adults with autism and related developmental conditions. Its clinicians use applied behavior analysis to teach communication, social and daily living skills, with progress measured and plans adjusted to each person's needs. Programs connect one-to-one sessions at home with support in schools and community settings and link treatment with everyday activities and family life. The business works with insurers and public regional centers to fund care, while families also pay privately for selected services. Founded in 2009, GOALS for Autism is headquartered in Walnut Creek, California.
