01Why this guide exists

This guide is part of our library, written by our clinical team and reviewed by parents who have lived this. The full written version is being finalized in our CMS — the structure, references, and reviewer process below are exactly how every House of Hearts guide is built.

In the meantime, if this is the topic you need help with right now, the fastest path is a real conversation with our team. We can walk you through it directly and point you to the parts that matter for your child.

02What it covers

The full breakdown of how your child's education plan and their ABA plan connect. Bring this to your next IEP meeting. We break it into clear, plain-language steps, with examples drawn from the families we serve across our four states — not theory, but what actually works at kitchen tables and in real routines.

You did not cause this. You are not too late. You are not alone.

03How to use it

Read it in order, or jump to the section you have the energy for today. Every guide ends with references and the date it was last reviewed so you always know how current it is. And every guide is something our care coordinators can walk through with you by phone.
