By HFT Staff


STEPS Behavioral Health hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening of its third autism care clinic, located at 8310 Guilford Road, Suite D, Columbia, Maryland. The event brought together advocates, local officials and leaders from the Howard County community to recognize STEPS commitment to providing timely, high-quality ABA Services to the community. 

During the ceremony, STEPS Behavioral Health was honored with two Certificates of Recognition: one presented by Deb Poquette on behalf of County Executive Calvin Ball, and another presented by Lori Kleppin and members of the Howard County Chamber of Commerce.

STEPS Behavioral Health is clinically run and operated, ensuring that decision-making and ABA therapy services are guided by clinicians with deep expertise in autism care. The organization also sets itself apart by maintaining no waitlist for services, allowing families to access diagnostic and therapeutic support without the long delays often experienced elsewhere. 

The Columbia clinic offers signature programs including Early STEPS (Early Intervention Program), Summer STEPS and Social STEPS, alongside ABA therapy, speech and occupational therapy provided in collaboration with The Therapy Spot. Its thoughtfully designed space includes gyms, playrooms, a media room and sensory areas to encourage learning, play and social growth.
