Autism Treatment Center (ABA Therapy) - Franchise Opportunity
Start-Up Description
No clinical experience required - SOS Franchising
Important disclaimer: This is only one business. This is not a listing for an existing business. SOS Franchising is looking for candidates to open new territories in the US.
AUTISM
The incidence of autism among American children has soared from 1 in 150 in 2000 to 1 in 36 today, and 6.8 million children and adults now live with autism.
ABA THERAPY
ABA is an applied science devoted to developing procedures that will produce observable changes in behavior. Using a system of rewards, ABA therapy can instill a desire to learn new skills. Our special way of teaching creates a fun and happy environment for a child that otherwise would be left behind. This non-verbal approach to errorless teaching encourages the child to step outside of their symptoms and helps them grow into a functional adult in mainstream society.
Even though the United States is the largest market for autism treatment programs, the demand for ABA is still outpacing the supply. 49 states report 6-month – 1-year waiting lists for ABA therapy.
The government recognizes this crisis, and changes to federal and state laws now compel health insurance companies to reimburse autism treatment as an essential healthcare service favorably.
ABA PROVIDERS
Up until 2018, the ABA therapy industry was dominated by private equity groups. In fact, Market research suggests that nine large multi-site ABA companies operate an estimated 296 brick & mortar centers — a 38% market share of ABA programs.
In 2018, Success On The Spectrum (SOS) emerged in the market. The first franchise of its kind, SOS provides a variety of therapy services to children with developmental delays, including ABA, Speech, and Occupational Therapy. The franchising company, SOS Franchising, provides each location owner with training and quality monitoring.
The franchise model in the ABA industry has the advantage of large company resources, training, operations monitoring, purchasing power, and brand recognition… while still holding the “mom and pop” feel and attention from individual owners.
SOS continues to grow and new locations are providing access to care for children across the country.
SOS HISTORY
As the mother of an autistic child, Nichole Daher became frustrated with the lack of Autism Treatment options available for her child. Her passion and determination to help autistic children fueled her mission to create more accessible care.
In 2015, Nichole opened up her first Success On The Spectrum location in Houston, which became full within 6 months. After expanding, they filled up again within 6 months. Even building a second location, twice the size of the first, didn’t slow down the number of new clients coming to Success On The Spectrum, as this center too was at capacity after 9 months.
Knowing that she could never meet the demand alone, Nichole founded SOS Franchising, the first comprehensive Autism Treatment franchise in the US. Her new mission is to train other business owners to open and operate high-quality Autism Treatment centers, as a way to make ABA care more available across the country.
The Success On The Spectrum franchise is now setting the standards for high-quality treatment and blazing a trail for excellence. As the first franchise of its kind, the Success On The Spectrum model is transforming the industry by creating healthcare centers that have a mom-and-pop feel but also the support and training one expects of a major medical facility.
COMMUNITY OUTREACH
Success On The Spectrum is known for its activism and community involvement. Each month, Success On The Spectrum hosts free social events for the public. Among the most popular events are the Annual Autism Prom, Autism Festival, and Parent Training Workshops.
