What We Offer Research and Education Multi-disciplinary teams of clinicians and researchers are reshaping the future of care Redefining Clinical Pathways Backed by more than a decade’s worth of real-world clinical data and the deep expertise of a multidisciplinary team, Catalight’s Research Institute is redefining what high-quality ASD and IDD care means: flexible, person-centered treatment focused on impactful outcomes and overall family wellbeing. Meeting Families WhereThey Are It can be challenging to find the right level of care and support—especially with a one-size-fits-all approach which leaves families with disjointed care and treatment that doesn’t recognize their unique needs. With Catalight’s experienced, outcome- and wellbeing-driven care team, families will get high-quality, person-centered care to support them throughout their journey.

Assessment-BasedCertificate Programs Assessment-Based Certificate Programs (ABCPs) are our way of training the clinicians of the future. These programs are designed to give individuals the skills and knowledge they need to become a clinician for one of our treatment options. Some of our ABCPs also provide certified and licensed clinicians with continuing education credits. Practitioners must meet the prerequisites for the program and complete web-based training. In addition, some programs require live, virtual training. As a final step, practitioners must pass an exam demonstrating competency in the program.
