TheraCare’s Program
Services provided by TheraCare include but are not limited to evaluation and assessment, service coordination and all other required services under Part C of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act such as family training and home visits by a variety of therapists and educators, as well as applying various methodologies to meet the needs of our autism population.
Our skilled professionals work in partnership with each family, and their primary health care providers, to create an environment for enhancing their ability to meet their child’s individual needs.
TheraCare employs professionals with expertise in various teaching methods for children with developmental disabilities and children with Autism Spectrum Disorders such as Applied Behavior Analysis/including Verbal behavior (ABA), the use of Discrete Trial Teaching (DTT) methods, Relationship-based approach (DIR) or a combination of one or more methods. The program is supervised by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA).
TheraCare’s teachers and clinicians receive intensive and ongoing training by our full-time supervisory staff and full-time administrators support not only our program but also the families we serve. All children are seen in their natural environment.

TheraCare’s Connecticut Early Intervention Program
TheraCare’s Early Intervention program offers a full array of services designed to maximize the full potential of each child. Our goal is to promote collaborative relationships with parents and family members to strengthen and enhance their child’s development.
We work with your family to provide services based upon the family’s unique culture and needs to obtain desired outcomes for your child. By providing home/community-based services, TheraCare can focus on the opportunities that exist within the family structure to enhance the child’s development.
Our success is contingent upon the provision of services to children at the earliest possible age. TheraCare is committed to early identification followed by quality care.
