About California Autism Center
The California Autism Center and Learning Group (CAC) was founded in 2014 with the intent to bring client-focused center-based ABA services to the Central Valley. Data supports a center-based model as the most effective method for treating children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Similar to in-home services, the center-based model still allows for individual treatment plans in addition to supplemental home and community-based services as needed. This model also provides more learning opportunities for clients and increased support for staff.
We are local company located in the heart of the Central Valley. We have Treatment Centers in Fresno, Merced and Visalia. Our focus is a team approach with positivity and perseverance.
What makes CAC great?
- Behavioral Health Center of Excellence (BHCOE) accredited and distinction among ABA therapy providers.
- A center-based autism center provider means no driving to clients' homes or losing hours due to cancellations.
- Regular mentorship and opportunities for professional development.
- A supportive environment focused on a work/life balance
Registered Behavior Technicians (RBT) help children (ages between 18 months and six years old) who are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder develop coping strategies through the use of a playful, positive environment to learn social, behavioral, and daily living skills to succeed in the classroom and the community. RBTs work in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis to shape clients' lives by evaluating, tracking progress, and collecting data to improve behavior.
Registered Behavior Technicians are evaluated quarterly for performance with the opportunity for merit increases each quarter.
