ABA therapy built for Summit families
Summit's tree-lined streets and family-friendly neighborhoods make it an ideal setting for in-home ABA therapy. Our BCBAs design plans that fit seamlessly into your family's daily routine, whether that means working around school drop-offs at Brayton Elementary or coordinating with after-school activities at the Summit Community Center. We understand the pace of Union County life and tailor sessions to maximize natural learning opportunities in the home environment.
For families with children attending Summit Public Schools, Liftoff coordinates closely with the Summit School District's Child Study Team to align therapy goals with any Individualized Education Program (IEP) or 504 Plan. We also support families navigating Union County's special services, such as the Union County Educational Services Commission, which provides specialized programs for students with disabilities. Our therapists work flexibly around school hours, summer breaks, and local routines to ensure consistent, effective care.
