Local Recreational and Supportive Programs

We provide support, information, referral, family activities & events, educational & therapeutic programs for children with autism as well as siblings, school vacation events and community partnerships to area businesses. 

Students enjoy coming to the newly renovated antique barn that is home to 8 horses, 3 miniature horses, a pony and a variety of small farm animals. Our 11,000 square foot indoor riding arena allows for year round instruction. 

Our positive approach, engaging philosophy and overall experience is different. Camp Starfish provides a 1:1 staff-to-camper ratio at all times to enable success, build social skills, teach coping mechanisms, and help children who have difficulty finding success in traditional settings. 

 Our programs focus on social education and success. Since 2002, we have provided a welcoming and fun social environment where kids can have that “go out and play” or “hanging out” experience with an extra layer of social support. We are the real-time “practice” place for social learning. 

The practice specializes in providing evidence-based treatment interventions to children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD).

Teaching, Reaching, and Experiencing with Kids (TREK) purposefully engages with youth in direct experience and focused reflection in order to increase knowledge, develop skills and clarify values. TREK is a therapeutic adventure-based after-school, summer and vacation camp program for youth.

When you give children the space and opportunity to explore, investigate, dream and play, that’s when imagination and creativity come to life. Children’s Classes at the Maker Farm are led by an experienced teaching staff who engage kids in art activities, recycled crafts, sewing, theater, horseback riding, cooking, farming, and much more.

Our mission is simple: Through the systematic approach of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), we help children diagnosed with autism to discover the world around them and learn daily living skills so they can actively participate in their communities and become the people they are meant to be.

Our new 40,000 Sq Ft facility located in Berlin, Massachusetts on more than 4 acres of land offers a state of the art location for ABA services. Our center includes amenities such as a commercial 18-hole mini golf course, large pavilion space, playground, playing field, basketball court, professional yoga gym, art space, and double kitchen. This and more, is all available for our clients to learn, play, and grow!

Homebase Behavior Consulting is a small agency dedicated to serving their clients, their families, and caregivers in a nurturing environment both at our center and in the homes of our clients. We provide evidence-based treatment to those impacted by autism and other developmental disabilities. Our focus is to encourage and support behaviors that will help our clients live healthy and happy lives to their potential.

While there’s no one-size-fits-all treatment for mental health disorders, seniors who are struggling with issues such as depression, anxiety and eating disorders may want to consider joining an assisted living community. These facilities provide seniors with the safety and security that comes with knowing staff are always available to lend a helping hand, and many residents find they can rest easy knowing that they don’t need to worry about maintaining a home, shopping for groceries or preparing meals.
