Burnsville is one of the south metro's largest communities, home to approximately 64,000 residents and a growing number of families seeking quality autism services. Located along I-35W and I-35E with convenient access to Hwy 13 and County Road 42, Burnsville connects easily to Minneapolis and the broader Twin Cities region. The Heart of the City district, Burnhaven area, and Crystal Lake neighborhood each have their own character — and families across all of them can access Dakota Autism Center's services.
The Burnsville-Eagan-Savage School District (ISD 191) is known for strong special education programs. Dakota Autism Center works alongside ISD 191 families to provide ABA therapy that reinforces what your child is learning at school. Our BCBAs coordinate with your family to align therapy goals with IEP objectives, creating consistency between the classroom and therapy sessions — whether those sessions happen at our center or in your home.
Burnsville families have two great options for ABA therapy: our Minneapolis center (about 16 miles north via I-35W, typically a 25–30 minute drive) or in-home services delivered in your Burnsville home.

Questions Burnsville families ask about ABA therapy
Answers to the most common questions from families in Burnsville and surrounding areas like Bloomington, Eagan, Savage.
Yes. We regularly provide in-home ABA therapy to Burnsville families. Our RBTs travel to your home for scheduled sessions, and a supervising BCBA oversees your child's treatment plan and makes adjustments based on progress.
Our Minneapolis center is approximately 16 miles north of Burnsville. The drive along I-35W typically takes about 25–30 minutes, depending on traffic. Many Burnsville families also choose in-home therapy to avoid the commute.
We accept most major insurance plans including Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Cigna, and Minnesota Medical Assistance (Medicaid). Our intake team handles insurance verification so you know your coverage before services start.
We serve children from early toddlerhood through school age. Early intervention — starting around age 2–3 — often produces the strongest outcomes, but children at any stage can benefit from a personalized ABA program.
While we don't provide services inside schools, our BCBAs work closely with families to ensure therapy goals complement your child's school-based supports and IEP objectives. This coordination helps create consistency across all the environments where your child learns and grows.
