New centers expand access to center-based ABA therapy for young children with autism as demand for specialized services continues to grow.

WALLINGFORD, Conn. and EAST GRANBY, Conn., Sept. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — InBloom Autism Services is expanding its presence in Connecticut with the opening of two new Learning Centers in Wallingford and East Granby, bringing specialized autism services to more families in the region. 

According to data from the 2020–2021 National Survey of Children’s Health, 3.0% of Connecticut parents reported that their child, ages 3–17, had autism, compared with 2.9% nationally. The data underscores the ongoing need for accessible, specialized services for children and families across the state.

The new Learning Centers will serve children 18 months through 5 years old in autism friendly environments designed to support communication, social development, independence, and school readiness. Each center features play-based learning spaces, individual therapy rooms, sensory-friendly gym areas, and mock classrooms where children can build skills through age-appropriate activities. 

InBloom Autism Services is an in-network provider with many major insurance providers. Families interested in learning more about ABA therapy at the new centers can contact the InBloom Care Team at 888-754-0398 or visit inbloomautism.com.

Since 2019, InBloom has provided center-based ABA therapy to families in Connecticut and has continued to grow its presence across the state. The new locations extend that reach to families in the Wallingford and East Granby communities while providing additional opportunities for individualized care during the critical early childhood years.

“We don’t measure our growth simply by the number of doors we open,” said Tim Bohman, Chief Executive Officer at InBloom Autism Services. “We measure it by the quality of care we’re able to provide inside those doors. As we expand in Connecticut, we’re committed to finding and supporting the best clinicians across the state and building teams that are equipped to provide individualized, meaningful care to every child and family who walks through our doors.”

The new centers feature spaces designed around the way young children learn and develop, including:

Large playrooms that support naturalistic, play-based learning and social interactionIndividual therapy rooms for one-to-one instruction and skill developmentIndoor gyms with sensory-friendly activities that encourage movement and body awarenessMock classrooms where children can practice skills and routines that support the transition to kindergarten

InBloom’s ABA programs are individualized by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and incorporate play-based, naturalistic learning opportunities. Families also participate through ongoing communication and parent coaching designed to help children use newly developed skills at home and in their communities.

“We’re excited to bring InBloom’s model of individualized, center-based ABA therapy to more families in the region,” said Abigail Dunn, M.S., BCBA, LBA, Senior Vice President of Clinical and Operations at InBloom Autism Services. “Our Learning Centers are designed to give young children with autism opportunities to build communication, social, daily living, and school-readiness skills in an environment created specifically for their needs.”

In addition to ABA therapy, InBloom has expanded its services in Connecticut to include autism diagnostic evaluations for young children through an in-house licensed psychologist. This expansion gives families access to both diagnostic and therapeutic services within InBloom’s continuum of care.

A SPACE DESIGNED FOR EARLY LEARNING

Each InBloom Learning Center is designed with young children and their families in mind. Therapy takes place through engaging, age-appropriate activities that allow children to practice skills in environments that mirror everyday experiences.

Programs may address communication, social interaction, play, daily living skills, independence, and preparation for school. Treatment plans are individualized and updated as children progress.

The new Wallingford and East Granby Learning Centers are located at 860 North Main Street Ext, Suite 101A, Wallingford, CT 06492 and 2 Gateway Boulevard, Suite 110, East Granby, CT 06026, respectively.

Aeon and Mountain Horse Prove Low-Cost Warhead and Fuze Package at Drone Dominance

Mountain Horse’s warhead and Aeon’s MERC ESAD flew together on top-performing drones. Available now and built for high-volume production.

AUSTIN, Texas and COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Sept. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Aeon Industrial and Mountain Horse Solutions today announced that their integrated lethality package — a Mountain Horse warhead paired with MERC, Aeon’s low-cost, high-voltage electronic safe-and-arm device (ESAD) — flew on drones from several of the top-performing companies in the recent Drone Dominance Gauntlet at Fort Carson, Colorado for one-way attack drones.

Multiple top competitors selected the Mountain Horse warhead and MERC for their Drone Dominance platforms, where the package performed reliably. Mountain Horse, a winner of the Drone Dominance Lethality Prize Challenge, supplied the warhead; Aeon supplied the fuze. MERC has been reviewed by fuze safety boards under the Drone Dominance lethality program, supports time, proximity and impact fuzing, and integrates across different drone types, from quadcopters to fixed-wing, as well as missiles and interceptors.

MERC is NDAA-compliant, available now, and priced at a fraction of the cost. It is already in volume production, delivering more than 10,000 units to U.S. programs and scaling output at Aeon’s new 140,000-square-foot manufacturing facility. Together, Aeon and Mountain Horse provide drone manufacturers with an all-in-one, flight-proven warhead and fuze package.

As the Department of War moves to increase production of drones, missiles and other affordable weapons, the supply of critical components must scale with the platforms themselves. Building more drones does not solve the problem if manufacturers cannot get the warheads and fuzes required to complete them. Aeon and Mountain Horse pair the two so drone manufacturers can integrate a complete, flight-proven lethality package at the needed scale.

“Drone manufacturers are being asked to scale faster than their component suppliers can follow, and the lethality package has to scale with them,” said Chris “Gus” Jennings, Director of Growth at Aeon. “Pairing MERC with Mountain Horse’s warhead gives manufacturers a proven, lethal combination. MERC is NDAA-compliant, available now, and being produced at volume. Any manufacturer that needs a fuze can get one from us today.”

“Drone manufacturers need lethality solutions that are proven, straightforward to integrate and available at the quantities their programs require,” said Cameron Acorn, Program Manager sUAS Lethality at Mountain Horse Solutions. “Pairing our warhead with Aeon’s fuze gives customers a complete package that has already flown together on leading platforms at Drone Dominance and is ready to support large production programs.”

As a vertically integrated company, Aeon supplies rocket motors, fuzes and other critical subsystems to drone and missile manufacturers. Mountain Horse provides warheads and integrated lethality solutions for unmanned systems and other defense applications. By making these capabilities available to industry, the companies are helping remove critical supply constraints that stand in the way of affordable mass.

The article explains how Belgian brewing traditions and evolving craft beer tastes are shaping local beer preferences in Delaware.

NEW CASTLE, Del., Sept. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — What is driving the growing interest in Belgian beer among American drinkers? HelloNation has published an article that provides the answer, exploring how Belgian beer is influencing modern craft beer preferences and beer trends across the country.

 

The HelloNation article explains that Belgian beer has gained recognition as beer enthusiasts seek more complex flavors beyond standard options. Known for its depth and variety, Belgian beer reflects centuries of brewing traditions that emphasize natural ingredients, fermentation methods, and careful aging. These qualities have made Belgian beer a standout within the broader craft beer movement.

The article notes that the rise of craft beer in the United States introduced many drinkers to Belgian brewing traditions. As American breweries and importers highlighted these methods, Belgian beer became associated with quality and craftsmanship. This shift in beer trends encouraged beer enthusiasts to explore new styles, including Trappist ales, saisons, and lambics.

In Delaware, the article describes how this national interest has influenced local beer culture. Establishments like Jessops Tavern have responded by expanding their selection to include more Belgian beer. Restaurant Expert Justin Day of Jessops Tavern notes that customers are increasingly curious about these styles, reflecting broader changes in beer trends across Delaware. This growing demand has helped position Belgian beer as a staple within the local beer scene.

The HelloNation article further explains that Belgian beer stands out due to its distinct yeast profiles and higher alcohol content, which contribute to its complex aromas and flavors. These characteristics appeal to beer enthusiasts seeking richer tasting experiences. As a result, Belgian beer continues to play a significant role in shaping craft beer preferences nationwide and within Delaware.

Another key takeaway from the article is the importance of education in driving interest. Many consumers are introduced to Belgian beer through tastings, festivals, and curated local beer menus. These experiences help beer enthusiasts understand the differences in style, strength, and flavor. Restaurant Expert Justin Day highlights that this growing awareness has made Belgian beer more accessible and appealing to a wider audience at Jessops Tavern.

The article also emphasizes that Belgian brewing traditions are influencing American brewers. By experimenting with Belgian-inspired techniques, local breweries contribute to evolving beer trends while maintaining a connection to traditional methods. This blend of innovation and heritage strengthens the craft beer landscape and expands options for local beer drinkers in Delaware.

Additionally, the HelloNation article describes how Belgian beer enhances the dining experience. Its wide range of flavors allows for thoughtful pairings with food, making it a popular choice at venues like Jessops Tavern. This pairing potential further supports the rise of Belgian beer among beer enthusiasts who value both taste and experience.

As Belgian beer continues to grow in popularity, the article suggests its influence will remain strong in craft and local beer markets. In Delaware, this trend offers beer enthusiasts opportunities to explore new flavors while learning about global brewing traditions. The continued presence of Belgian beer at establishments like Jessops Tavern reflects its lasting impact on beer trends and consumer preferences.
