Laid-off therapy workers in Washington continue caring for kids with disabilities

A San Francisco-headquartered therapy provider for kids with disabilities shut down its Washington state operations suddenly a few weeks ago. But several staffers thought there was too much at stake for the kids to just leave their families high and dry.

Anna Lyn Rogers and Catherine Wright of Port Orchard, formed their own company funded out of their own pockets to keep one-on-one in-home services going for 30 families in Kitsap County.

They had worked for Understanding Behavior — a San Francisco-based, national provider of services for individuals with developmental disabilities.

Wright and 18 other behavior technicians worked with families whose children were getting treatment based on Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).
