Lawrence County families will soon have access to specialized autism services with the opening of Outcomes ABA clinic in Hoxie. The clinic, located at 1600 SW Broad Street, will provide individualized therapy services designed to help children build independence and achieve meaningful progress at home, in school, and throughout their communities.

Family-Centered Approach

Outcomes ABA is owned and operated by Holly Ellis, a Lawrence County native and mother of a child with autism. Ellis has a background in education and behavior analysis, which has shaped the clinic’s model focused on practical skill development, communication, school readiness, and meaningful progress that extends beyond the therapy setting.

The clinic’s family-centered approach emphasizes collaboration with caregivers and focuses on individualized goals that support success at home, in school, and throughout the community. Services are tailored to each child’s unique needs and may include communication development, behavior support, daily living skills, caregiver coaching, and school readiness.

The Lawrence County Chamber of Commerce welcomed the announcement as an important addition to the region’s healthcare and family support services. The clinic is creating new employment opportunities as it builds a team to serve the growing needs of the region.

A Ribbon Cutting and Grand Opening Ceremony will be held on Monday, August 3, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. at the clinic. Chamber members, community leaders, families, and the public are invited to attend and help welcome Outcomes ABA to Lawrence County.
