HUG Center

HUG Center We help children learn, grow, and live their best life. ABA, speech, OT and more - all in one place. H.U.G.

Caring for a young, neurodivergent child comes with challenges and rewards. We believe all children and their families can thrive with a H.U.G., Haven for Understanding the Growth of children. supports children with autism by helping them to embrace their learning differences and focus on their strengths through behavior therapy. The end goal is to provide the children we serve with the keys to un

lock their highest potential. Our mission is to create a safe and compassionate environment for learning and discovery across all areas of a child’s natural environments. We are dedicated to using a progressive approach to Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) along with unique neurodiversity-affirming and strength-based practices to teach each child coping strategies and the skills necessary to navigate the world as best they can.
