The continued recognition reflects the company\u2019s evolution from rapid expansion to a more durable phase of growth focused on long-term sustainability, clinical excellence, and workforce strength.<\/p>\n<p>ABA Centers was founded in 2020 by an autism father to address one of the biggest barriers facing families seeking autism services: long wait times for diagnosis and treatment.<\/p>\n<p>Today, the organization serves more than 2,000 children with autism across 15 states\/territories in 72 markets and 49 treatment centers, as well as in-home, in-school, and in-community services. This growth has been driven by continued investment in clinical talent, operational infrastructure, and timely access to care for families.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis recognition reflects the dedication of our team to serve families with urgency and excellence,\u201d said Jason Barker, CEO of ABA Centers. \u201cOur focus has never been growth for growth\u2019s sake. It has been about building the reach, infrastructure, and talent needed to help more families access high-quality autism care without long delays.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The autism rate for children in the U.S. has risen to 1 in 31, more than double the 2012 numbers. As demand for autism services continues to increase, the company remains focused on expanding thoughtfully while investing in the systems, support, and clinical talent necessary to serve more families at scale.<\/p>\n<p>More information about the Financial Times \u201cThe Americas\u2019 Fastest-Growing Companies 2026\u201d list is available on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/3d3b5406-b7e6-4ef0-8b50-cf02904589cb?syn-25a6b1a6=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Financial Times website<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Acerca de ABA Centers<\/strong><br \/>ABA Centers provides applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy services to children with autism spectrum disorder through a play-based approach rooted in positive reinforcement.
