Qualified staff and quality programming
Children’s Workshop is a highly structured ABA program, providing discrete-trial and incidental learning opportunities for its students in a safe school that emphasizes positive reinforcement for desired student behaviors. Our team includes credentialed special educators, a Speech/Language Therapist, and an Occupational Therapist and is led by a Program Coordinator and Director, both of whom are Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA).
We make learning as fun as possible for our kids.
