Brighter Strides ABA

Afterschool Programs

ABA support designed for school-aged children to improve communication, independence, and social skills beyond the school day.

Afterschool Support For Autistic Youth & Adolescents

Extended support outside the classroom.

Tailored for those needing additional support after the school day ends, we help autistic children and adolescents continue their learning and development in a structured, supportive environment.

Our after school programs include educational, recreational, and socialization activities to address each child’s unique challenges and strengths. Led by certified ABA therapists who oversee your child’s individualized plan, Brighter Strides after school programs help children develop essential skills that complement their classroom learning.

Social Skills Development For Children & Teens

Peer-peer interaction for continued growth.

Our after school programs facilitate peer-peer interactions and skills practice with other kids of a similar age. Through evidence-based practices, children learn how to interact more effectively with others which increases their confidence and independence.

Comprehensive Care & Connection

A collaborative approach for seamless support.

We partner with your child’s school to gather key insights for a customized therapeutic approach, targeting the unique social, behavioral, and academic challenges within their educational environment.

We invest in learning what is going on at school so that we can structure focused ABA afterschool support. Through open communication and collaboration with your child’s teachers, we create a seamless system of support that transitions with your child from their school day into their after school activities.

Success Stories

The true impact of our work is best reflected in the words of our clients.

I would like to take a moment to express my heartfelt appreciation for my son’s incredible therapy team, Mrs. Alyssa and Mrs. Z. Over the past year with Brighter Strides ABA, the progress my son has made in his growth and development has been truly reassuring for our family's future.

Mrs. Alyssa, our dedicated coordinator, has been an exceptional advocate for my son, ensuring that his needs are met on various different occasions when I was unknowledgeable on how to express them. Mrs. Z, through her one-on-one sessions, has brought creativity, enthusiasm, and unwavering dedication to his development, making a meaningful impact that has not gone unnoticed.

Thank you both for not only supporting my son but also guiding and uplifting our entire family as we navigate this journey. Your hard work and commitment mean the world to us!
Very professional. My kids love the center and staff is friendly.
Bright Strides provides great services by understanding the specific needs of our kids, not only with good strategies but also with clear and complete goals. The administrative service is excellent, always willing to help and find solutions.
All pros no cons great people and organization
My son Danny has been with Bright Strides for over three years, and his progress in following instructions, speech, and social skills has been amazing. The Bright Strides team has worked tirelessly to ensure that Daniel advances in every area he needs. They have designed sessions with clear and achievable goals tailored to him. All of Danny's accomplishments are a direct result of the team's dedication and the ongoing support we've received as parents. The administrative team has also been incredibly responsive, addressing any questions or concerns we've had in the shortest time possible. I have nothing but gratitude and positive feedback for the exceptional service we've received.
A fantastic ABA center! The staff genuinely cares, and their methods are both effective and compassionate.
Really helped my son. Grateful for the work they’ve done especially his RBT!
Brighter Strides has been fantastic for my son. Our RBT and her supervisor have been engaging and I feel like he is making progress everyday with is in home therapy. Alex and Bri are the best!!
They are very professional they take their time to understand their clients needs, and also the parents needs and concerns understanding. I’ve seen improvement with my kiddo.
My son attends Brighter Strides for ABA therapy. We have just started but so far we have really enjoyed all the staff and my Son absolutely loves the facility.
My son is receiving services in Fayetteville, NC. No wait list. I was amazed how quickly services started. The intake process to starting services took about 3 weeks. Other ABA companies were needing evals within 3 years where Brighter Strides didn't require. My son is enrolled at a Christian private academy where he receives ABA. His behaviors changed immediately. His team works not only with my son, but with myself and staff to ensure he's going to succeed and thrive. I am impressed with his team. Diana (RBT), Som (lead RBT), and Kiera (BCBA) are fantastic! These ladies are greatly appreciated by faculty at the school also.
Grateful to have stumble across this company. My son receives in-home therapy just over a year now. They are professional and very accommodating to my son’s needs. I can’t thank enough Chelsea Carter and Carla Goodman for all they do. These two ladies give it their all. I’m so very proud of my son's progress. Office people are friendly and fast. Brighter strides is the way to go!

Great communication, friendly staff, awesome service!!!!!
I’ve been working for Brighter Strides for about 5 years now and I have nothing but positive things to say about the company. I’ve experienced Great communication and support from the Team in the office and amazing support and feedback in the field from The BCBA’s. I can truly say this is one of the best ABA companies I have worked for. They are super understanding and have always been very supportive when life has thrown me lemons!
I have worked for Brighter Strides for three years now and it has honestly been the best experience I have had working for an ABA company. I always have the support and listening ear that I need to fully succeed within my career. I couldn't recommend Brighter Strides enough for someone looking for a career with ABA or a family in need of services.
Our RBT is amazing. She is calm in teaching and helping my child. She is very respectful and willing to go with the flow. Very good at communicating concerns and praising my child where it is needed.
