Description

At Lighthouse Autism Center (LAC), we combine our values and clinical expertise to provide collaborative, compassionate care in order to promote the best outcomes for our learners. We believe that it is essential for the services we provide to progress alongside the ever-evolving field of ABA.

  • Access to our free CEU library
  • Opportunities to earn Teaching CEUs during monthly training topics
  • Ongoing training provided in-house by our network of internal & external professionals
