ABA therapy in Wilton Manors

Located in Broward County, the city of Wilton Manors, known as “The Island City,” offers families a vibrant community atmosphere combined with the convenience of being part of the greater Miami metropolitan area. Incorporated as a city in 1953, Wilton Manors has grown into a unique and dynamic community. For families navigating the journey of developmental support for a child with autism, the city's structure and resources create a supportive backdrop for Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy.

Multicultural Development Services Center (MCDS) is proud to serve the families of Wilton Manors, providing compassionate, evidence-based ABA therapy that adapts to your daily life. Under the leadership of Executive Director Damaris Baez and our BCBA, Hiram Aguilera, our mission is to deliver individualized care directly to our clients in their natural environments. We understand that progress happens not just in a clinical setting, but at home, in the community, and during everyday interactions.

Wilton Manors provides a wealth of opportunities for community-based therapy. The city’s investment in recreational facilities means therapy sessions can extend to local parks to help generalize skills. A child might practice social skills at the renovated Mickel Field, which features walking trails and pavilions, or engage with sensory experiences at Colohatchee Park, with its nature boardwalk. These real-world settings are invaluable for applying lessons learned during in-home sessions. Neighborhoods like Highland Estates, which have seen significant revitalization, offer a safe and familiar environment for practicing daily living skills.

The city's compact size, at just under two square miles, makes our in-home ABA therapy services particularly convenient for Wilton Manors residents. Our therapists come to you, minimizing disruption to your family's schedule and allowing children to learn and grow in the comfort of their own home. MCDS also offers telehealth services, providing a flexible option for parent training and consistent support, regardless of your schedule. Our goal is to empower your family with the tools and strategies needed to support your child's development journey right here in the Wilton Manors community.
