STAR of California, based in the United States, began in May 2006 to provide autism-related resources to local communities in a nurturing environment that supported the entire family. Over time, it broadened its offerings beyond Autism Spectrum Disorders to include community-based mental health services. The organization emphasizes ongoing staff education and operates a dedicated support division alongside therapeutic services to help families navigate the challenges associated with autism. Its primary focus is on children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and their family members, providing therapeutic and supportive services tailored to family needs. As a community-based health care provider, STAR of California positions itself to address local mental health needs within its service area. A notable development occurred in January 2020 when Mertz Taggart partnered with STAR of California to expand its footprint in the autism services market.
