Autism From The Start

A little peek into our week! 📸 🩵

We’re excited to share that Autism From The Start has officially opened the doors to our third and newest center, now serving families in Olathe! 🏘️🎉

This milestone would not be possible without the incredible families who trust us, the dedicated team members who make a difference every day, and the supportive community that has helped us grow. We are so grateful for each and every one of you! 💙

Thank you for being part of the AFTS journey. We can’t wait for all the adventures ahead as we continue growing together! 🌱

This summer just got even brighter! ☀️ On May
26th, our dear Dara officially became a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), and we are beyond proud of her! 🎉

Dara began her journey with AFTS at our Lenexa location as an RBT in September 2024, became an intern in March 2025, stepped into the Autism Specialist role in August 2025 at our Shawnee location, and now joins our Olathe team as a BCBA! ✨

Dara is kind, joyful, and has a smile that lights up every room she walks into. She brings positivity, compassion, and genuine care to her kiddos and the entire AFTS team.

We are so thankful Dara chose to grow her career with AFTS, and we can't wait to watch her thrive in this exciting new chapter! 🌻
