ABA therapy in Rockledge

As the oldest incorporated municipality in Brevard County, Rockledge offers a unique blend of history and modern suburban life. Founded in 1887, the city gets its name from the coquina rock ledges lining the beautiful Indian River. Initially a resort town for winter tourists who arrived by steamboat, Rockledge's character shifted significantly with the advent of the automobile and later, the space race.

In the 1960s, Rockledge transformed into a thriving bedroom community for the Kennedy Space Center, welcoming families from all over the country. This period of growth led to the development of many of the neighborhoods families call home today, including Georgetown, Kings Grant, and Levitt Park. With a population of over 27,000 residents, modern Rockledge is a community centered around family life, stretching from the historic riverfront west past I-95.

Multicultural Development Services Center (MCDS) understands the needs of families in a community like Rockledge. The city's growth and layout, with commercial centers along Fiske and Barton Boulevards, mean that daily life can involve significant travel. We aim to reduce this burden by providing Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy directly in your home or in other community settings. This approach offers convenience and allows for skill-building in the natural environment where challenges often arise.

Whether your family lives in an established subdivision like Virginia Park or a newer area, our services are designed to be accessible. By bringing therapy to you, we help integrate learning and development into your daily routines. Under the guidance of our leadership, including Executive Director Damaris Baez and Hiram Aguilera, BCBA, MCDS is committed to providing compassionate and individualized support that respects the unique culture of each family we serve in Rockledge.
