We were so proud to see one of our Northwest Omaha families featured on !

Our CEO, Brad Zelinger, recently sat down with Ryan, a Stride parent, to share his family’s experience supporting their son, Cooper. Stories like this help other families see the real impact early intervention and ABA can have, and remind parents who are just starting out that they’re not alone.

We’re so proud of Cooper and grateful to his family for trusting us to be part of their story!
