The terms of the transaction, which closed on December 23, 2016, were not disclosed.

Based in Jamison, PA, Invo is a leading national provider of school and community behavioral health and other therapeutic services to individuals with special needs, including Autism Spectrum Disorder (“ASD”). The company serves more than 60,000 children annually in the areas of occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech and language pathology, and Applied Behavioral Analysis (“ABA”), in schools and other community-based settings across the United States.

We are united in our shared vision for the business and our motivation to provide the highest quality therapy services to children and families nationwide.”

“Invo is uniquely positioned at the crossroads of the behavioral health and special education services industries, key areas of focus for Wicks.
