ABA therapy in Miramar
Multicultural Development Services Center (MCDS) is proud to serve families in Miramar, a city that embodies its motto of "Beauty and Progress." Since its incorporation in 1955, Miramar has grown from a small bedroom community of under 200 people into one of Broward County's largest cities, now home to over 134,000 residents. This history of planned, family-focused growth created a community where residents can thrive, and MCDS is committed to supporting that vision with accessible ABA therapy services.
Miramar was founded to provide a welcoming community for families near Miami and Fort Lauderdale. Today, MCDS honors that legacy by bringing Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy directly to you. Our flexible service models, including in-home, school-based, and telehealth options, are designed to fit the lives of busy Miramar families. Rather than adding another commute to your day, our therapists can provide support in the environments where your child is most comfortable and where skills are most needed. This approach helps integrate therapeutic strategies into daily routines, supporting progress within the natural family setting.
Recognizing the rich cultural fabric of Miramar, which draws its name from a district in Havana, Cuba, MCDS provides services that are sensitive to each family's unique background. Under the leadership of our Executive Director, Damaris Baez, our team is dedicated to a family-centered approach. We collaborate closely with parents and caregivers to develop individualized care plans that align with their values and goals.
Whether your family lives in the eastern part of the city near its original boundaries or in the newer developments to the west, MCDS is here to help. Our goal is to provide consistent, high-quality support that empowers children with autism and their families throughout the diverse and dynamic city of Miramar.
