Our Mission
Autism 360™'s mission is to enhance autism treatment, education, and hope for all children through our wrap-around-care model. Our goal is to prepare children with autism to excel in school, community, and home based settings. At Autism 360™ each child and family will have the tools and support they need to reach their fullest potential.
Our History
Kate Donovan and her husband, Michael, founded Autism 360™ as an extension of their pediatric and adult therapy services company. They saw a deficit in supports for the families they were currently serving. That frustration quickly turned to a passion for advocacy and inclusion for the ASD community. The foundation for a premier ABA services company was laid when North Carolina mandated coverage for ABA services in 2015.
Autism 360™ is committed to ensuring not only that the autism community has the resources they need to thrive, but that persons with ASD are recognized for the amazing resources they can give to others as well.
Family is our solid foundation

Autism 360™: The Six F Philosophy
Family
Experience leads us to believe that parents have the power to impact the most significant change in their children. Our focus includes the idea that we do not just work with children; we work with families. We are firmly convinced that parent involvement and education is an important key to success. Our goal is to ensure that caregivers are active participants in the planing and implementation of therapy.
Fun
It can be stressful to work on acquiring or restoring difficult skills; we believe that it is our job to make sure your child does not feel like therapy is a job! We use immersive environments, creative play, movement, music, and other unique incentives to motivate children to give their all so they can be their best.
Full Circle
It is our pleasure and desire to work together as a team, with parents and other service providers, to give each child the most effective treatment possible. We provide a full range of therapeutic services in home based, community based, and clinic based environments to provide continuity of care. If possible and appropriate, we provide co-treatments between disciplines and/or back-to-back sessions to simplify your family scheduling.
Function
Our goals are determined by what is important to each child and their family. We always start with these two questions: "What skill or skills will have the most significant impact on this child? What skills will most significantly impact this child's family unit?" The answers provide direction, helping to plot the course toward greater independence.
First-Rate
Excellence in care is our standard. From the first call to the initial evaluation; from treatment to filing insurance claims; from parent education to discharge planning. We strive to ensure each family's experience is exceptional and personalized to their specific situation and needs.
Faith
Our agency values are established from our personal values. As owners and operators, it is our faith that forms the foundation for the decisions we make, the way we aspire to conduct business, and our desire to strive for excellence in all we do.
