MCDS provides culturally responsive, BCBA-supervised ABA therapy for children and families in Montura, Hendry County, with travel-inclusive in-home visits, community sessions, and telehealth.

ABA therapy in Montura

Located in the heart of Hendry County, Montura is a unique, unincorporated community where every resident lives in a rural setting. With a population of just over 3,300 people, Montura offers a distinct lifestyle, characterized by its wide-open spaces and close-knit community feel. For families in Montura navigating the journey of autism, Multicultural Development Services Center (MCDS) provides specialized ABA therapy that understands and adapts to the realities of rural life.

The 2020 Census highlights that a significant portion of the Montura community, nearly 74%, identifies as Hispanic or Latino. MCDS honors this cultural fabric by offering bilingual and culturally sensitive services. Our approach, guided by Executive Director Damaris Baez, ensures that therapeutic strategies align with each family's values, language, and unique household dynamic.

We recognize that for families in a widespread community covering over 22 square miles, traveling for services can be a significant challenge. MCDS brings ABA therapy directly to you through in-home and telehealth services. This model eliminates the need for long drives, allowing children to learn and develop skills in their most familiar and comfortable environment—their own home. Our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), like Hiram Aguilera, and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) work with your family to integrate therapy into your daily routines.

Montura's community life often centers around local recreational areas. The Montura Ranch Estates Clubhouse, with its playgrounds, soccer field, and baseball field, is a perfect example of a natural environment where children can practice social and play skills. Our community-based therapy model allows for sessions to take place in these real-world settings, helping children generalize their skills beyond the home and into the places where they live and play.
