Passion. Attention.

Spark Specialized Services was founded in 2018 to help support children and adults from Northeast Ohio who have developmental disabilities and/or are on the autism spectrum. We are committed to providing positive and safe supports that promote self-advocacy, genuine happiness and independence. It is our goal to provide life experiences that empower individuals to maximize their full potential, as well as providing a well-managed, safe, and orderly environment that is conducive to learning and encourages respect for all.
