Catalight Our goal is to ensure that clients and families receive timely access to evidence-based treatment.

We believe all individuals impacted by developmental disability deserve timely access to quality treatment by an accredited network of behavioral health providers. By working with us, providers can quickly scale and respond to the growing needs of their clients today while serving as a thought partner committed to shaping the future needs of the industry. As experts in network management and the delivery of innovative — and individualized — care services, we ensure providers receive the training, resources and guidance needed to deliver consistent and effective care to help improve outcomes and meet families where they are.

Autism is not one experience and not one level of need.

Today, on , we recognize individuals whose needs are often underrepresented in broader conversations about autism.

For some individuals with autism, independence is possible. For those with profound autism, daily life requires constant, around-the-clock support.

That means:
• Help with basic daily activities
• Limited or no verbal minimal communication
• Ongoing supervision to stay safe

It’s not temporary. This is lifelong.

We must recognize that parents and caregivers of those with profound autism are essential advocates, not secondary voices. We cannot allow for their realities to be missing from the conversation.

If we want truly inclusive care and policy, we must work toward expanding services for people with profound autism (especially into adulthood) and ensure that those who cannot speak for themselves are still fully represented.

No voice should go unheard – even when it can’t be expressed.

Elevate Your Impact is in full swing!

From family-centered care to innovative service models, today’s sessions at are all about new ways to improve outcomes for individuals with autism in meaningful ways.

We kicked off Elevate Your Impact week tonight at our Walnut Creek office with a special moment for the Catalight team.

The incomparable Russell Lehmann, international disability advocate and last year’s Elevate Your Impact keynote speaker, joined us to share his reflections on inclusivity, acceptance and his lived experience as a person with autism.

The evening also celebrated the launch of Catalight Academy, our new global learning platform designed to bring dynamic, evidence-informed training to practitioners around the world.

Russell’s words keep us grounded in what matters most. It inspires us to keep pushing forward and reminds us that Elevate Your Impact is about far more than a conference and its attendees – it’s about improving the lives of the thousands of individuals and families we serve.

Families should play the most important part of helping autistic children succeed but their perspectives aren’t always fully built into how care is designed.

Catalight's Vice President of Clinical Excellence Lindsey Sneed, Ph.D., and Vice President of Caregiver-Mediated Care Solutions Karen Bearss, Ph. D. will be joined by Texas State University professor Tracy Raulston, Ph. D., next week in New Orleans for the annual Association of Professional Behavior Analysts convention to explore what happens when autism services truly center families: how parent-led strategies affect caregiver confidence and wellbeing, and how clinicians can be better trained to partner with families in meaningful ways.

We’re opening the doors to Catalight Academy…

Catalight Academy is a virtual learning platform built to help today’s practitioners deliver modern, evidence-based autism and other I/DD care.

Inside Academy, learners around the world gain certification in research-backed training designed for real-world care: efficient, low-hour models, parent-mediated approaches and telehealth-enabled treatments that improve access and outcomes.
