Center for Autism and Related Disorders (CARD®) is a leading provider of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy for individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, founded in 1990 by Dr. Doreen Granpeesheh. The organization delivers evidence-based treatment using the CARD® Model, which applies comprehensive behavioral principles to help clients build functional skills across home, school, and community environments. CARD serves individuals across the lifespan, from early intervention and preschool-age children through teens and adults 13 years and older. The organization offers multiple service delivery modalities including center-based clinic sessions, in-home therapy, and school-based consultation. All programs are delivered by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) who work collaboratively with families. Parent training and caregiver support are central to CARD's treatment philosophy. The organization's S4P program provides simplified, accessible training for caregivers, helping families apply ABA strategies consistently at home and feel more confident in supporting their child's progress. CARD operates primarily in the Los Angeles area and serves families in English and Spanish. The organization continues to operate under founder Dr. Doreen Granpeesheh's leadership following its 2023 restructuring, maintaining a network of clinics and delivering ABA services to individuals seeking evidence-based autism treatment.
