What ABA Foundations does

ABA Foundations is a privately held, founder-owned behavioral health services provider headquartered in Stuart, Florida, delivering Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy to children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and related developmental disabilities, with a secondary consultative practice serving adults with developmental disabilities on vocational and career-experience goals. The company operates a direct-service clinical model across two center locations (Stuart and Palm Beach Gardens, FL) plus home- and community-based delivery, and structures its offering around five integrated services: center-based ABA therapy, home/community ABA therapy, parent coaching and support, social skills training, and a school readiness program. Service delivery is performed by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) following a standardized clinical workflow — functional behavior assessment, treatment plan development, caregiver training/coaching, and ongoing data-based outcome measurement.

The "technology" of the business is clinical methodology rather than software: evidence-based ABA protocols delivered through a multidisciplinary team approach, with individualized, data-driven treatment plans adjusted over time. There is no proprietary software platform, API, mobile app, or AI tooling evidenced in the data; differentiation rests on credentialed clinical labor and process rigor. The founder, Dr. Jennifer Agganis (Chief Clinical Officer), is a BCBA certified in 2003 with experience in the field since 1999 and a doctorate from Florida Atlantic University; the leadership bench includes a Regional Director with 19 years of experience and long-tenured center and intake/billing staff.

The revenue model is insurance-reimbursed clinical services, billed against medical necessity with co-pays, co-insurance, and deductibles per policy; accepted payers include Aetna, BCBS, Cigna, CMS/Wellcare, Medicaid, United, and the Step Up scholarship program. Go-to-market is sales-led and family-initiated through a website "Get Started" form and inbound phone, supported by referrals from physicians, schools, and daycares, and organic social media (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok). The customer base is regional (Treasure Coast and Palm Beach County), consumer/SMB in nature, and concentrated in pediatric autism services. Headcount is in the 11–50 band and no external funding, parent company, or institutional ownership is disclosed.
