Last year JumpStart Autism Center went through the process of applying for re-accreditation for our status as a Behavioral Health Center of Excellence (BHCOE) for both of our centers. There are only a few organizations in New Mexico that have received that accreditation (in fact JumpStart was the first in 2016!), as the process includes a rigorous review of all policies and procedures, clinical guidelines, staff survey data, parent survey data, and observation of sessions. We are beyond proud to announce that JumpStart has been awarded another 2 years of accreditation as a Behavioral Health Center of Excellence! We are so excited to maintain this status as one of the BEST ABA providers, not only in New Mexico, but across the country! How does this apply to our team? Follow the link to "6 Reasons Why Behavior Technicians and Behavior Analysts Should Work for a BHCOE Accredited Organization" by Jade Health.
JumpStart Autism Center shares a mission with Jade Health "to elevate the quality and transparency of autism care by ensuring that the National Autism Data Registry reflects the priorities and evolving needs of the ABA community." We are so proud of our founder, Brian R. Lopez, PhD, BCBA, for his newest role as a member of the Scientific Advisory Committee.
JAC has been named a Top Workplace in The Albuquerque Journal for the fifth year! This award is a badge of honor for us, especially because it comes authentically from our team’s honest feedback.

We are honored to be a supportive space for our Behavior Technicians to grow professionally and have fun while doing it! Being named a Top Workplace is a big deal — only 59 companies made this year’s list. We are honored, especially because the judges were our employees!
