Terapia ABA en Hernando, FL

Terapia ABA en Hernando

Multicultural Development Services Center (MCDS) is proud to support families in Hernando, Florida, a unique census-designated place in northeastern Citrus County. With a population of over 9,200 residents, Hernando is a community where families put down roots, with data from the 2020 census showing that 14.3% of the population is under the age of 18.

MCDS understands that for these families, accessing consistent and reliable support for children with autism is a priority. Hernando's geography spans over 35 square miles, blending suburban neighborhoods like Pine Ridge and Citrus Hills with more rural areas. This landscape can make traveling to a traditional therapy center a daily challenge. Our services are designed to overcome this barrier by providing Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy directly in the environments where your child lives and learns—your home, their school, or community settings.

The natural beauty of the area, including the expansive Tsala Apopka Lake and the Withlacoochee River system, provides a wonderful backdrop for community-based therapy. Our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) can work with your family to incorporate local outings into your child's care plan, helping them practice and generalize social and communication skills in real-world situations. This approach integrates therapy into your family's daily life, making it both practical and relevant.

Under the leadership of our Executive Director, Damaris Baez, MCDS is committed to providing compassionate and culturally competent care. We recognize Hernando's diverse population, which includes a Hispanic and Latino community, and offer bilingual services in English and Spanish to ensure clear communication and collaboration with every family we serve. Our goal is to be a trusted partner for Hernando families, delivering personalized ABA therapy that respects your values and meets your child's specific needs.
