ABA therapy in Pine Hills
MCDS is proud to serve families in Pine Hills, a large and historically significant community in Orange County. As an unincorporated census-designated place with over 66,000 residents, Pine Hills possesses a unique character shaped by decades of growth and change. Established in 1953 with the Robinswood and Pine Ridge Estates subdivisions, it was one of Orlando's first suburbs, growing as a bedroom community for Martin Marietta employees.
Today, Pine Hills is recognized as one of Central Florida's most prominent minority-majority communities, with vibrant African American, Haitian, Jamaican, and Puerto Rican populations. At Multicultural Development Services Center, we understand the importance of culturally sensitive and accessible care. Our commitment to providing services in languages like Spanish and Haitian Creole is central to our mission, ensuring that families can communicate effectively and feel understood.
For families in a sprawling community like Pine Hills, accessing consistent support for children with autism can be a challenge. That's why our service model is built around meeting you where you are. Instead of requiring travel to a clinic, our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) provide ABA therapy in your home, your child's school, or other community settings. This in-home and community-based approach allows therapy to be woven into your family's daily life, addressing real-world situations as they happen.
Whether your child attends a local school like Evans High School or Meadowbrook Middle School, or you need support developing routines at home, our team is equipped to help. By working in your natural environment, we help children generalize skills more effectively and reduce the burden of transportation on busy parents. Under the guidance of our leadership, including Executive Director Damaris Baez and BCBA Hiram Aguilera, MCDS provides structured, evidence-based support tailored to the unique needs of your child and family right here in Pine Hills.
