CARD Telehealth: Access Full ABA Programs during COVID*

“Telehealth is challenging, but it’s awesome at the same time — a lot of in-the-moment parent trainings. It’s invaluable.”

“We are happy with telehealth.  We have actually prioritized ABA over school as school has not been helpful.”

“Telehealth keeps me on track to work with my child. The behavior analyst trains me to run lessons applying the principles of ABA, which I really appreciate.”

Devereux Adolescent Health and Wellness Clinic

We understand the transition from childhood to adulthood brings physical, hormonal and emotional changes.

Autism Center

The Devereux Arizona Autism Center supports children and adolescents, up to age 18, with autism spectrum disorder in the development of communication, social and adaptive skills needed to live independent, fulfilling, productive and socially-connected lives.

Outpatient Services

Devereux Arizona offers comprehensive outpatient counseling services for individuals, families and groups in office, school and home settings. Specialties include the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, conduct disorders, mood disorders, physical abuse, sexual abuse and anxiety disorders.

Respite

The goal of respite care is to provide a period of rest for children and their primary caregivers, without disruption or compromise to their home placement. Respite care may reduce the utilization of more intensive services, and can help maintain the placement of a child in the home.

Residential Treatment Center (RTC)

Located on a 10-acre campus in Scottsdale, Devereux Arizona’s Residential Treatment Center (RTC) provides 24/7 support for youth struggling with emotional, behavioral or substance abuse challenges. The RTC offers individuals, ages 4 to 17, stability, safety and structure.

Therapeutic Foster Care (Adult and Child)

Adult: Devereux Arizona’s Adult Therapeutic Foster Care program places adults with mental health challenges in trained and motivated foster homes. Typically, individuals placed in these homes have previously lived independently, but need additional help managing their illness. Individuals in the program are 18 years of age or older who benefit from living in a family environment. Devereux Arizona trains and licenses adult foster care providers to care for these individuals.

Child: Our Therapeutic Foster Care Program pairs children with behavioral challenges with foster parents who are extensively trained to care for the child's intense needs. This program is designed to prepare youth for permanent placement, whether that is with their biological family, adoptive family or independent living.
