Parents often wrestle with the dilemma: fund ABA therapy today, or save for a future where they're not around to bankroll their child's needs? Since the answer isn’t written on the back of your insurance card, here are some more wallet-friendly, DIY options for those who prefer to take matters into their own hands:
UTSA RBT Course: At $350, it’s cheaper than a semester of textbooks, with far more practical return. Check out my blog for a deeper dive—I promise it’s worth more than two cents.
UTSA ABA Certificate Program: Aimed at BCBA candidates, this program might lighten your wallet considerably with five to seven classes, but you'll gain enough knowledge to maybe start charging your own consultation fees.
Online Resources: The internet is a treasure trove of free advice and how-tos. Start with "Teaching Kids with Liz" on YouTube—she offers tips on ABA without the need for a co-pay.
