Monday we honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his enduring call to act with integrity, courage, and compassion.

In our work at Fern Leaf ABA, we are guided by the belief that dignity, respect, and evidence-based practice are not optional, they are essential. Dr. King’s words remind us that progress is made not only through big moments, but through everyday choices to do what is right for the people we serve.
May we continue to reflect, listen, and commit ourselves to building a more just and inclusive future for all.

At Fern Leaf ABA, we believe growth doesn’t happen in isolation.
It happens when people feel supported, respected, and rooted in community.

We are proud to work alongside individuals and professionals who lift one another up — celebrating progress, honoring challenges, and growing together along the way.

Let’s keep rooting for each other. 🌱

Growth isn’t always linear — and it isn’t always easy.
But when we’re supported, understood, and encouraged, we grow through what we go through.

At Fern Leaf ABA, we believe in meeting people where they are, honoring their experiences, and walking alongside them as they build skills, confidence, and independence. Growth looks different for everyone, and every step forward matters.

Thank you for trusting us to be part of your journey. 💚
We’re honored to grow with you.

✨ Happy New Year from Fern Leaf ABA ✨

As we step into 2026, we are filled with gratitude and pride as we celebrate five years of serving our community.

While Fern Leaf ABA was founded in 2020, January 2021 marked the moment we began accepting clients and living out our mission in real time. What began as a shared vision between two colleagues has grown into something deeply meaningful — rooted in compassion, collaboration, and a belief in the potential of every individual.

Our mission continues to guide us today:
Seeing Potential. Encouraging Growth.
In our clients, their support networks, our team, and our field.

To our clients, families, collaborators, and community partners — thank you for trusting us, growing with us, and allowing us to be part of your journeys.

Here’s to five years of impact — and many more to come. 🌿
