My husband and I are planning to move to the AUSTIN, TX area to be closer to family. We live in NY right now and my 3yr old son with PDD is receiving ABA therapy which is really helping him. Does anyone know of a good preschool that uses ABA therapy in Austin area?????

You might take a look at this one:

The Capital School is not necessarily ABA-based, but you might like it:

If your child is 3 years old or over, he may very well qualify for a half-day pre-kindergarten class through the public school district (PPCD - http://www.austinisd.org/academics/specialeduc/ppcd) I am a speech therapist in a neighboring school district, and the work that our PPCD teachers do with kids who have autism is just fantastic.

Private therapy clinics you might look at:

If he meets certain requirements, I believe CTAC has a preschool day program.
Also, Children's Autism Center in RR.

We went to the Shape of Behavior in south Austin. ABA clinic but very school-like setting, with playgrounds and classrooms. Highly recommended. They will also shadow children as they transition to typical preschool, and they work miracles with insurance.
