We are thrilled to announce that Children’s Milestone recently shared our passion and expertise on local television! Our CEO, Edward Kamara, and Clinical Director, Diana Lako, joined the hosts of Living Local DMV to discuss the crucial topic of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy and the power of early intervention for children with autism.
This feature allowed us to shine a light on the core of our mission: delivering personalized, effective, and evidence-based support directly to families in the DMV community.
