Our Story<\/h2>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n
\r\n

ABA therapy works. Years of scientific research, thousands of satisfied parents worldwide, and our personal experience show that intensive, high-quality ABA can change a child\u2019s life forever. So it really hurt when children in need\r\n were turned away because of technicalities. We founded Interact Therapy Services because we passionately believe that high-quality ABA therapy should be easy and available to all children who need it.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n
