Something BIG is coming to Mercy in Summer 2026…

We’re partnering with a learning academy to create a first-of-its-kind, fully collaborative model for children with ASD and related disorders — combining ABA with peer models, early learning, speech, feeding, and occupational therapy in one individualized support approach.

We’re not revealing everything just yet…
But trust us — this will be worth the wait.

More details soon. 👀
