Budding Futures provides in-home ABA therapy for children with autism in Pueblo, Colorado.
We work with kids from 18 months through 18 years, anywhere in the Pueblo area.
Applied behavior analysis here looks like play: communication, daily living skills, and social skills built into your child’s real day.
Health First Colorado (Medicaid) usually covers it in full, and we take Aetna, Cigna, Anthem BCBS, and most major plans.
No waitlist right now. A licensed BCBA writes every plan and checks the data weekly.
Everything starts with an assessment in your home, not a clinic intake.
A BCBA comes to your Pueblo home, watches how your child plays and communicates, and builds the treatment plan from VB-MAPP and ABLLS-R baselines.
Trained behavior technicians work through real routines like mealtime, play, and getting ready, so new skills hold up in daily life.
You learn the same strategies we use, and progress keeps going after the session ends.
When your child needs support at school, we reach out to Pueblo School District 60, or District 70 for county addresses, and work to line up therapy goals with the classroom.

Read Mark's profileMost families with Health First Colorado pay $0, because Medicaid covers ABA in full for eligible kids under 21.
Commercial plans usually land somewhere between $0 and $500 out of pocket, depending on your deductible.
Private pay runs about $120 to $150 per hour. See the full Colorado cost breakdown.
