Caregiver Advocacy, Support, and Education (CASE)
Being a caregiver of a child with disabilities can present many challenges. From navigating the EIP process in schools to navigating trips to the grocery store, caring for and supporting a child with disabilities can easily become a complicated and overwhelming experience. With this in mind, SHAPE Center took the step to make caregiver advocacy, support, and education an auxiliary component of our clinical program. Our aim is to provide a safe space as well as a village of support in which caregivers can learn and share different resources and strategies for the benefit of disabled children. This includes monthly caregiver support groups led by an experienced Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), community events such as Sensory Sunday at Chuck e Cheese®, and access to a network of disability friendly resources. Although SHAPE Center’s primary focus is autistic and neurodivergent individuals, our advocacy extends to the support of all disabled children including visually and hearing impaired, chronically ill, and physically disabled individuals alike.
Philosophy & Mission
At Shape Center ABA, we believe that every child is unique, every family’s journey is personal, and every step forward—no matter how small—is worth celebrating. We see therapy not just as a service, but as a partnership built on trust, compassion, and shared goals. Rooted in science and guided by heart, we strive to shape meaningful progress by meeting children and their families exactly where they are—with respect, understanding, and unwavering support.
Helping Your Child Explore, Grow, & Learn
At Shape Center, we believe every child has unlimited potential — and our goal is to help them unlock it through compassionate, evidence-based care. Our ABA therapy programs are designed to support your child in building meaningful skills, increasing independence, and navigating the world with confidence.
Through personalized treatment plans, engaging sessions, and a team that genuinely cares, we create an environment where your child can explore new possibilities, grow at their own pace, and learn in ways that are fun, functional, and lasting. Whether it’s developing communication, improving social interactions, or building daily living skills, we’re here to celebrate every step forward.
