ABA therapy in Oxford
Multicultural Development Services Center (MCDS) is committed to supporting families in Oxford, Florida, with professional, evidence-based Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. As an unincorporated community in Sumter County, Oxford holds a unique position, bordered by the expansive community of The Villages to the east and rural landscapes to the west. We understand that for families here, access to consistent, high-quality developmental services is a priority, and our service model is designed to meet that need directly.
For families navigating a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), the logistics of accessing care can be a significant hurdle. MCDS removes this barrier by delivering ABA therapy in the settings where your child lives and learns. Whether your home is near the main thoroughfares of U.S. 301 and County Road 466 or in a more secluded part of the community, our therapists come to you. This in-home approach allows for therapy to be integrated into your family's daily routines, helping children and teens develop crucial skills in their natural environment. We also offer school-based services, collaborating with educators in Sumter County to support student progress in the classroom.
The convenience of our model is particularly suited to the lifestyle of Oxford residents. By eliminating the need for frequent travel to a clinic, we give time back to families. Our services also include telehealth options, providing a flexible and effective way to receive support and parent training from a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) without leaving home. Each child's therapy plan is individualized and developed under expert supervision to address specific goals related to communication, social skills, and behavior.
Under the leadership of Executive Director Damaris Baez and with clinical oversight from professionals like Hiram Aguilera, BCBA, MCDS is dedicated to providing compassionate and effective support. We partner with Oxford families to build functional skills and create opportunities for greater independence. Our focus is on delivering accessible care that respects the unique circumstances of each family in the Sumter County community.
