Enrollment

Our children are our greatest joy and accomplishment; their struggles are our greatest heartbreaks.  Raising a family is an epic journey that we wouldn’t trade for the world.  The process of seeking and securing answers and assistance for any child’s needs can be complex and stressful in any system.  Those needs and processes were the impetus for Journey Center. 

This journey begins when it becomes apparent that your child’s needs are different and will benefit from involvement in supportive treatment systems. Journey Center’s ABA approach specializes in treating the needs of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other developmental disorder diagnoses.
