April ABA is not your typical start-up. We are a clinician-operated, clinician-owned, female, and veteran-run organization whose mission is to support clinical systems so clinicians can focus on what's important: providing strong clinical care to individuals with autism.

• Transparency with caseload decisions.
  • Our unique caseload structure assigns cases based on a combination of diagnostic, environmental, and family variables.
  • Caseloads are adjusted up when clients make progress according to our system and are adjusted down if these variables increase. The decision to adjust caseloads is a collaborative decision between clinician and supervisor.
  • Clinicians will always be able to prepare for changes in their caseload based on our system, never exceeding 25 hours per week.
• Clinical growth opportunities. We have strong connections with leaders in the field who provide continuing education to our staff.
