Priorities ABA Celebrates 25th Anniversary

Updated On

Priorities ABA, North Carolina’s premiere contemporary applied behavior analysis (ABA) provider of center-based, in-home, and school-based autism services for children, celebrates its 25th anniversary this year.

“We’re thrilled to celebrate our 25th anniversary of helping children and families grow, learn, and thrive,” said Emily Cogdell, LPA, LBA, BCBA, Regional Clinical Director.

Priorities ABA, a provider of LEARN Behavioral, is proud to announce its 25-year milestone. The organization is celebrating in a unique way by holding themed activities for children and families at their Cary, Fayetteville, and Jacksonville Learning Centers each month throughout the year. For example, in April, Priorities ABA celebrated Earth Day with a fun Scavenger Hunt at each of their Learning Centers.

“Families are excited about all the different themed activities, and the children particularly enjoy the themed activities where they may wear costumes or dress up for the day,” noted Cogdell.

In addition to themed activities for children and families, Priorities ABA staff is celebrating the 25th anniversary by giving back through monthly employee outreach initiatives that support various local community nonprofit organizations. Each month, staff hold a different drive to support the community – from a clothing drive, to a book drive to promote reading awareness, to a food drive for Second Harvest Food Bank in Fayetteville.

Growing & Expanding Services

Priorities ABA was founded in 2001 and primarily served the Greenville area. As one of the earliest team members, Cogdell began working with Priorities ABA in 2004, delivering one-on-one ABA therapy to children on the autism spectrum.

“In the beginning, Priorities ABA had a team of four Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), and services provided to children were limited to home-based,” Cogdell explained. “This meant that the BCBAs were only able to provide ABA therapy to children a couple of times per week.”

“Fast forward 25 years, Priorities ABA has branched out and is able to help many more families as we’re able to provide services where the children are – whether that’s at one of our Learning Centers, or at home or school,” explained Cogdell, whose team currently works in home, community, and school settings, tailoring ABA programs around the strengths and weaknesses of children with autism.

Priorities ABA is committed to focusing on each child’s unique needs, providing personalized, child-centered care to help them succeed, while also supporting the family.

Priorities ABA provides in-home, center-based, and school-based ABA services at three state-of-the-art Learning Centers located in Cary, Fayetteville, and Jacksonville, NC. In addition to a team of 13 BCBAs, Priorities ABA now employs more than 100 Behavior Technicians (BTs) who provide ABA services to children and families each day.

Cogdell continued, “Many of our BCBAs have been with us for 7 to 15 years. This longevity speaks to the culture we have created. What we do and how we do it is important – we believe in both.”

5 Sensory-Friendly Things to Do Near Roseville, MI 

Published:

For families of children with autism and other developmental needs, choosing places to go for fun outings often means looking for spaces that are quieter, less crowded, and easy to navigate. Those kinds of environments can keep kids comfortable and engaged without too much sensory input. 

Sensory-friendly spaces can support that. Some offer structured programs with smaller groups and adjusted sound or lighting. Others are simply calm, predictable places where families can move at their own pace and take breaks when needed. 

In and around Roseville, Michigan families have options. These five spots, all within a short drive, offer a mix of indoor and outdoor settings that work well for lower-stimulation outings. 

1. Huron Park offers open space

Huron Park has a simple layout with a large, open greenspace and a playground. The park feels manageable, and families can shift between the playground and open grass without long transitions or crowded pathways. It also has a walking track, bike trail, ballfields, a fitness court, an inline skate area, picnic areas with shelters, tables, grills, and restrooms. 

Tips for families: Walk the space once before your child starts playing so they can see where everything is. Bring a familiar toy or snack to help with transitions between activities. 

2. Clinton-Macomb Public Library – South Branch provides a quiet setting 

The South Branch of the Clinton-Macomb Public Library offers a structured, low-pressure environment with a well-organized children’s area. Visits can be brief and flexible, and staff can help guide families to quieter corners or simple activities. 

Tips for families: Start with a short visit, and leave before your child gets overwhelmed. Let your child choose one activity so the outing feels predictable. 

3. St. Clair Shores Public Library offers a calm visit 

A short drive from Roseville, St. Clair Shores Public Library provides another steady option for a low-stimulation outing, with a children’s section designed for browsing and quiet activity. The space supports short, focused visits, which can help families avoid overstimulation while still giving children a chance to engage. 

Tips for families: Set a simple goal, like picking out one or two books. Build a routine by visiting the same section each time. 

4. St. Clair Shores Civic Arena offers structured indoor activity 

St. Clair Shores Civic Arena offers public ice-skating sessions in a controlled, predictable environment. The space is contained, the activity is repetitive, and families can move at their own pace, which can work well for children who benefit from routine and clear boundaries. Sessions vary in size and noise level, but earlier or less busy times tend to feel more manageable. The structure of skating, with a clear start and stop, can also help children understand what to expect. 

Tips for families: Check the public skate schedule so you can choose a quieter session. Bring familiar gear or take breaks as needed to keep the experience comfortable. 

5. Lake St. Clair Metropark offers room to move 

Lake St. Clair Metropark gives families access to wide paths, water views, and enough space to spread out, which can help reduce sensory overload. Even on busier days, the size of the park makes it possible to find quieter areas, and the clear layout helps keep the experience predictable. 

Tips for families: Choose one small area of the park instead of trying to see everything. Bring comfort items like headphones or a favorite object for breaks. 

Support for Families in Roseville 

For families in Roseville, finding the right places to go is one part of helping a child build comfort and confidence in the community. Total Spectrum supports children and families through applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy and related services that focus on communication, daily living skills, and routines. If you are looking for support in the Roseville area, Total Spectrum is here to help you take the next step.
