Why Assent Academy
Assent-Based Practice in ABA
Assent is the agreement to participate from individuals who cannot legally give consent. In ABA, assent-based practice is a person-centered approach that prioritizes the learner's voice in assessment, intervention, and decision-making.
This means we honor when a learner gives or withdraws assent—whether through a clear “no” or other forms of communication—and adjust our approach accordingly.
While research on assent in ABA and PBS is still emerging, we stand out by adopting these practices to ensure services remain respectful, collaborative, and truly centered on the individual.
Meet Assent Academy
Personalized Care. Meaningful Progress.
Founded by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), Assent Academy was created with a commitment to providing individualized, compassionate ABA services for children and families.
We believe therapy should be supportive, engaging, and built around the individual child.
