How close is the clinic to New Hope?

Very close. Our clinic at 7100 Northland Circle N is just over the Brooklyn Park side of the border, and Boone Avenue N runs straight from the heart of New Hope to our door. Most New Hope families are here in well under 10 minutes, which makes a 20 to 40 hour weekly therapy schedule much easier to sustain.

Can rides to therapy be covered for New Hope families?

Often, yes. Children covered by Medical Assistance may qualify for non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT), which pays for rides or mileage to covered medical services like ABA therapy. How you arrange rides depends on your plan: PMAP members call their health plan, and Straight MA families use the state's NEMT system. We walk you through it during intake.

My child is 3 and doesn't have an autism diagnosis yet. Where do we start?

Start the conversation now rather than waiting. Minnesota requires an evaluation called the CMDE (Comprehensive Multi-Disciplinary Evaluation) before EIDBI services begin, and we can explain that pathway, help you understand early signs, and line up intake so therapy can start sooner once the evaluation is done. Ages 2 to 10 are exactly who our early intervention program is built for.

If you are looking for ABA therapy in New Hope, MN, the good news is geographic: Neurolink Academy is your next-door neighbor. Our clinic sits just across the Brooklyn Park border, and Boone Avenue N runs from the middle of New Hope nearly straight to our front door. From the 55427 and 55428 neighborhoods, most families arrive in under ten minutes. We provide BCBA-led applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy for children ages 2 to 10, funded for most families through EIDBI, Minnesota's Early Intensive Developmental and Behavioral Intervention benefit under Medical Assistance.

From New Hope to our front door

There is not much to plan here. From Civic Center Park, the aquatic park, or anywhere along 42nd or Bass Lake Road, head north on Boone Avenue N. The clinic is at 7100 Northland Circle N, Suite 201, in the quiet business park just east of Highway 169. From the Winnetka Avenue side of town, Winnetka north to Bass Lake Road and over to Boone works just as well.

A drive this short changes what therapy can look like. Sessions are easier to keep, weather days are less disruptive, and a parent can realistically get from a New Hope kitchen to our lobby and back inside half an hour. When a treatment plan calls for 20 to 40 hours per week, that proximity is not a luxury; it is what makes the plan hold.

Starting young: early intervention for New Hope toddlers

Many of the New Hope parents who contact us have a two- or three-year-old and a gut feeling, not a diagnosis. That is exactly the right time to talk. Acting early matters because young brains build skills fastest in the first years, and our early intervention program is play-based and built for toddlers and preschoolers.

Minnesota does require one formal step before EIDBI services begin: an evaluation called the CMDE (Comprehensive Multi-Disciplinary Evaluation). We do not perform the CMDE ourselves, but we explain the pathway, point you to the right resources, and run intake in parallel so your child is not waiting twice. Our CMDE guide covers the whole process in parent-friendly language.

Coverage that works for New Hope families

We accept Straight MA, HealthPartners PMAP, Blue Cross Blue Shield PMAP (Blue Plus), and MA TEFRA, the four Medical Assistance pathways that fund EIDBI. TEFRA deserves a special mention: it qualifies a child with a disability for Medical Assistance based on the child's needs rather than household income, which surprises many working families in New Hope. Details live on our insurance and EIDBI coverage page.

Children in New Hope mostly attend Robbinsdale Area Schools, and therapy is scheduled around school commitments, not against them. Whether your child is in district preschool, kindergarten, or elementary school, we map their therapy hours onto your real week during intake.

When you are ready, start intake. It takes about five minutes, we verify coverage for you, and you will be talking to a human, not a phone tree, about what comes next for your child.

EIDBI and Medical Assistance welcome for New Hope families

EIDBI works the same in New Hope as everywhere in Minnesota, and we accept all four Medical Assistance pathways that fund it. For most EIDBI families, therapy costs nothing out of pocket. Our intake team verifies your child's coverage for free.
