Comprehensive Educational Services (“ACES” or “the Company”) today announced a strategic investment by General Atlantic, a leading global growth equity firm. The partnership will enable ACES to scale its leading, evidence-based services to more individuals affected with autism spectrum disorder, while further investing in talent and technology and continuing to elevate its clinical model. Kristin Farmer, Founder of ACES, will maintain a significant ownership stake in the Company after the transaction. ACES provides applied behavioral analysis (“ABA”) and ancillary services to individuals and families impacted with autism or other special needs. Farmer, a regarded expert in the autism field, founded the Company in 1996 and has since grown it 100% organically to provide ABA therapy in home, school, and clinic-based settings.
