“The program offered at Horizons is reputable, evidence based, and far superior to the other recognized approaches used to remediate autistic children. My son has been able to reach meaningful developmental milestones as a program participant, and I now have confidence that he will become independent and thrive as an adult. I do not hesitate to refer families to the Horizons Developmental Resource Center.”
