Regional Center is from the state of California.
I cannot get aba through our school, my son
is high functioning and they don't even want to put autism
as disability, they have it as speech. Since my son is heavyily
medicated they don't see a lot of thing we do. Though
I have a lot of issues with the school and will be using my
advocate. I want to use the ECHO and Regional Center
together to get more hours of aba and repite together.
