ABA therapy in Webster

Multicultural Development Services Center (MCDS) proudly extends its ABA therapy services to the families of Webster, Florida, a city in Sumter County that embodies its motto: "Rustic, Rural, Real." Known historically as the "Home of the Parson Brown Orange" and "The Cucumber Capital," Webster maintains a strong connection to its agricultural roots and small-town character. With a close-knit population of just 778 residents as of the 2020 census, we understand that families here value personalized, accessible support that respects their community's unique identity.

For families in Webster and surrounding communities like Linden and Tarrytown, accessing specialized services like Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy can sometimes mean long drives to larger urban centers. MCDS eliminates this barrier by delivering high-quality, evidence-based ABA therapy directly to you. Our in-home and school-based services are designed to integrate seamlessly into your child's daily life, providing support in the natural environments where skills are most needed. We also offer telehealth options, ensuring consistent care is always within reach.

The 2020 census highlights Webster's diverse population, with a significant number of residents identifying as Hispanic or Latino, alongside non-Hispanic White and Black or African American community members. MCDS was founded with a mission to provide culturally and linguistically competent care. Under the leadership of Executive Director Damaris Baez, our team is prepared to meet the unique needs of every family, including those who are bilingual. Our approach, overseen by clinical experts like Hiram Aguilera, BCBA, is to create individualized therapy plans that are sensitive to each family's cultural background and values.

At MCDS, we are committed to being a trusted partner for families in Webster. We believe that a rural setting should never be a barrier to receiving exceptional support for children with autism. By bringing therapy to your doorstep, we help empower your child to build essential skills within the comfort and familiarity of your own home and community.
