ABA therapy in Coral Springs

In Coral Springs, a city guided by its motto, “Everything Under the Sun,” families find a community master-planned for livability. Chartered on July 10, 1963, this Broward County city was meticulously developed from former bean farms and cattle ranches into a thriving urban center. With a 2020 population of over 134,000 residents, Coral Springs is known for its family-friendly orientation, a characteristic demonstrated by its rapid and thoughtful expansion. During its major growth periods in the 1970s, 80s, and 90s, the city added numerous public schools and parks to serve its expanding population.

The city's design includes unique features that contribute to its distinctive character, most notably the Coral Springs Covered Bridge—the only one of its kind in Florida. This landmark, along with community hubs like the Coral Square mall, the arts center, and the history museum, form the backdrop of daily life for local families. The city's planned nature and sprawling layout mean that residents are accustomed to a lifestyle that balances suburban comfort with access to comprehensive amenities.

Multicultural Development Services Center (MCDS) understands that for families in a dynamic city like Coral Springs, accessibility and convenience are paramount when seeking support services for a child with autism. That is why we offer applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy directly in your home, at your child’s school, or in other community settings. This approach eliminates the stress of traveling to a clinic and allows our therapists to integrate developmental goals into your child’s established daily routines in familiar surroundings.

Under the guidance of our Executive Director, Damaris Baez, MCDS is committed to providing compassionate, individualized care. Our flexible service models, including in-home and telehealth ABA therapy, are designed to fit the lives of busy Coral Springs families. We are dedicated to serving the community by providing support that helps children build skills within the environments where they live, learn, and play.
