DYER, Ind., Feb. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Caravel Autism Health, a leader in the diagnosis and treatment of young children on the autism spectrum, is hosting a ribbon-cutting. Caravel’s February 4th event celebrates the grand opening of a state-of-the-art autism therapy clinic that expands access to high-quality services for families in northwest Indiana. Caravel’s newest clinic, located at 14813 West 101st Avenue in Dyer, features colorful, sensory-friendly spaces where children work one-on-one with therapists to build skills, develop confidence, and learn to connect with the world around them.
Caravel’s autism experts create customized Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy plans for each child in their care. ABA uses positive reinforcement to help children build communication and social skills. ABA is recognized as the most effective treatment for children with autism by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. One in 36 children is on the autism spectrum. In addition to customized ABA therapy, Caravel provides diagnostic services along with family support and counseling.
“This clinic brings new resources for families in northwest Indiana who have struggled to find expert care for their children,” explained Caravel CEO Mike Miller. “Research shows that ABA therapy gives children the greatest opportunity to reach their full potential, so we are committed to investing to bring autism specialists into communities like this one.”
The new center is led by clinic director Kristin Rowland, MS, BCBA, who was born and raised in northwest Indiana. “We’re thrilled to open our doors to local families and offer high-quality ABA therapy. ABA is positively life-changing, especially when we can begin providing therapy in the early developmental years.”
Rowland is excited to be enrolling new clients as well as growing the Caravel team in Dyer. To schedule an appointment or to learn more about career opportunities available at the clinic, visit www.caravelautism.com.
