Many teens want to feel more confident navigating the world, but sometimes they just need the right support and opportunities to practice.

At The Community Nest, our ABA Therapy for Teens program focuses on building independence through real-life community experiences.

Teens will practice skills like:
โ€ข Attending community events
โ€ข Meal planning and grocery shopping
โ€ข Dining out at restaurants
โ€ข Taking public transit
โ€ข Learning important community safety skills

Our goal is to help teens feel confident, capable, and comfortable participating in their community.

If youโ€™re looking for a supportive program where your teen can build independence and life skills, we would love to connect with you.
