-
Staff availability

Insurance authorization

Completion of the intake packet
Most families begin within 2–6 weeks.
Early Start Infant Development (0–36 months)
Is this the same as ABA for infants?
No—Early Start focuses on developmental play, communication, motor skills, and caregiver coaching, but may integrate ABA techniques when appropriate.
​
Do I need a diagnosis for Early Start?
Not always. Early Start is designed for children with or without a diagnosis who show developmental delays or concerns.
​
Do you work directly with Regional Centers?
Yes. Blueprint is a vendored provider and accepts referrals for Early Start services.
ABA Therapy
What is ABA therapy?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is an evidence-based approach that helps children build meaningful skills—such as communication, social interaction, independence, and emotional regulation—while reducing behaviors that interfere with learning.
​
Where do you offer ABA therapy?
We offer services in-home, in-clinic, community-based, and school support (when authorized).
​
How many hours of ABA therapy will my child receive?
The number of hours is based on your insurance authorization and your child’s individual needs. Most children receive between 6–25 hours per week
Preschool Readiness Program (Ages 2.5–5)
Is this program the same as a preschool?
It is not a preschool, but a structured program that prepares children for preschool or kindergarten by focusing on routines, social skills, communication, and early academics.
​
Can my child attend this program while still receiving ABA?
Yes. Many children participate in Preschool Readiness as part of their overall treatment plan.
Adaptive & Social Recreation (Ages 5–15)
What types of activities are included?
Activities include group games, social skills sessions, emotional regulation practice, community outings, arts and crafts, sportsmanship, and functional independence skills.
​
Is this program appropriate for children who need 1:1 support?
Yes—children who need additional support can receive individualized assistance, depending on authorization.
