Summer often gives us more free time, which makes it a great time to try new things, activities, and programs for your little ones. Achievement Balance offers Autism camps during the day all year long. But summer is a great time to try it out, especially if your little one does well in class environments and misses it during vacation months.
We also offer home services if Autism day camps are a bit much for your schedule, but you would still like support services. Our home services help families from right within their own homes and are a huge support for both your child and you.

Autism Day Camps
If you are looking for a fun and educational activity for your little one this summer, then speak with us about our Autism camps all through the summer (and school year).
Our camps run daily from 8:00 am – 5:30 pm and have programs for all ages, from preschool through school-aged children, we have a program that will fit with your goals and your child’s needs.
Our Autism day camps are community-based programs that provide your child with fun and social ways to learn generalized skills, such as:
- Handwriting
- Social skills
- Appropriate social skills
- Frustration tolerance
- Pragmatic thinking
- Flexible thinking
- Sportsmanship
- Self-regulation
- Sensory tools
- And much, much more!
These skills are easily transferred to daily situations that they may come upon at school or their daily lives. We try to offer a wide variety of skills and activities at our camps so your child will experience varied activities and lessons every day, while still holding to a structure they know and expect.
Our camps are structured with scheduled activities that imitate a classroom setting and community settings, so they can excel in each. Our schedule always includes breakfast, lunch, walks, rest time and motor skill activities, as well as social play and sensory work for those who need it.
Our mission for our Autism day camps is to empower your family and our children to move mountains, and we are honored that your family and our community have enabled us to continue this amazing journey and provide day camps throughout the year. Learn about alternative Autism summer camps here.
Home Services
Did you know that Achievement Balance provides home services in the Dallas – Fort Worth areas? Our home services are always run by an experienced behavior technician that will come directly to your house for therapy with your family and little one.
Our home services focus on skills like:
- Language
- Visual performance
- Motor skills
- Feeding
- Communication
- Toileting
- Alternatives to challenging behaviors
Our behavior analysts will help equip your child on how to deal with different or difficult situations like haircuts, dental appointments, and more, as well as working with you to reach the goals that are unique to your family.
All of our home services are overseen by a board-certified behavior analyst (BCBA) which will make personalized recommendations for treatment, provide parent/caretaker training and help guide your behavior therapist to best reach your goals.
No two families or situations are the same, which is why we’ve made our home programs for children of all skill levels and needs, and why we tailor each service specifically to your family.
We have three home service models:
- Intensive Model – this model offers the highest level of therapy
