Terapia ABA en Big Coppitt Key

Multicultural Development Services Center (MCDS) is proud to offer dedicated ABA therapy services to families in Big Coppitt Key, a unique and resilient community in Monroe County. As an unincorporated area with a 2020 population of 2,869, Big Coppitt Key offers a distinct island lifestyle, and we tailor our support to fit the specific needs of families living in the lower Florida Keys.

Life in Big Coppitt Key, as well as the adjoining communities of Geiger Key and Shark Key, revolves around the water and the connections provided by the Overseas Highway (U.S. 1). We understand that traveling for appointments can be a challenge. That's why our primary service models—in-home and community-based ABA therapy—are designed to bring support directly to you. Our therapists work with your child in the familiar, comfortable environment of your own home, reducing family stress and eliminating the need for trips to a clinic.

Big Coppitt Key provides natural opportunities for learning and growth. The island features three parks, including one with a playground and another with a basketball court. These local spots are ideal settings for our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and technicians to implement community-based therapy. We can help children practice vital social, communication, and play skills in real-world environments they will encounter every day. This approach helps generalize skills beyond the home, fostering greater independence.

The community has shown incredible strength, facing and rebuilding from major weather events like Hurricane Wilma and Hurricane Irma. This spirit of resilience highlights the importance of consistent, stable support for children with autism. Our telehealth services offer an added layer of reliability, ensuring that therapy can continue without interruption, even when travel is difficult. Under the clinical guidance of experts like Hiram Aguilera, BCBA, our team is committed to providing steady, compassionate care.

At MCDS, we recognize that your family's needs are unique. Our Executive Director, Damaris Baez, leads our organization with a focus on creating personalized ABA therapy plans that integrate seamlessly into your life in Big Coppitt Key.
