About Our Organization

The Autism Center of North Mississippi is governed by its Board of Directors, which consists of volunteer members with various skills who provide legal governance and financial management policies and ensure ACNM has adequate resources to advance its mission. 
 

Our ABA treatment team consists of Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBT). The BCBAs create treatment plans to develop specific skills for each child to meet their particular deficits. The RBTs carry out the implementation of the treatment plan addressing communication, behavior, feeding, and social skills. 

Another essential element of our treatment team is our Licensed Clinical Social Workers who offer mental health support. Rounding out our treatment team is our Care Coordinator, who helps families find needed resources and services. They provide emotional support, monitor the family’s overall well-being, and aid parents in advocating for their child’s needs.
