​

San Bernardino County is one of the largest counties in the country — and for many families raising a child with autism or another neurodevelopmental difference, that size can feel isolating. Services are concentrated in certain cities, waitlists stretch for months, and too many families end up doing the driving, the waiting, and the advocating all at once. Spectrum Optimal Care serves families across San Bernardino County with ABA therapy and parent-led coaching designed to work in your real life, not around a clinic's schedule

​

Who is is it for?

• Modification as child's needs and abilities develop

IEP Advocacy & Support

Who is is it for?

IEP's are confusing and can be intimidating when it's a group of teachers and professionals and only 1 Parent/set of parents. ​Our advocacy services are collaborative and family-centered. This service is for parents who:

• Are experiencing continued calls home or their children facing disciplinary action due to behaviors

• Feel they are not being heard during IEP meetings

• Are confused about the way behaviors are being addressed in school

​

What do we work on?

We help you prepare for, participate in, and follow up after IEP meetings with clarity and confidence. Support may include:

• Reviewing current IEPs, assessments, and school reports

• Identifying gaps in services, goals, or accommodations

• Translating educational and clinical language into clear, understandable terms

• Helping you prepare questions, concerns, and priorities before meetings

• Attending IEP meetings with you (virtually or in person, when available)

• Supporting communication with school teams in a professional and effective way

• Recommending evidence-based goals and supports aligned with your child’s needs

• Ensuring your voice as a parent is heard and respected

 

​

You know your child better than anyone

Our job is to equip you with the tools to put that knowledge to work every day, not just during scheduled sessions.

​How is ABA Therapy Paid For?

We are committed to making funding work for your family. We accept many insurances and are currently accepting clients through the Self-Determination Program (SDP) via the Regional Center of the Desert (RCOD) and Inland Regional Center (IRC), with full Regional Center vendorization in process. Private pay families are warmly welcomed, with a sliding fee scale based on current DDS low-income rates, updated every quarter. No diagnosis is required for private pay services — so if you are still in the assessment process, you do not have to put your life on hold.
