Having a child diagnosed with ASD can be very challenging, but there’s hope. Master Faster has an exemplary track record of helping children across New York State master critical life skills and conduct productive, fulfilling lives. The key is Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Therapy – a highly recommended and clinically validated method used to teach children with autism.
