Episode 268 - Discussion on Neurodiversity

ABA Inside Track

In what we’re planning as an ongoing series of episodes over the next year (and beyond), ABA Inside Track will be talking about neurodiversity: What it is, what it means for behavior analysts, and why understanding and discussing it with open ears, the courage to be uncomfortable, and the importance of listening is key to the future of our field. For now, here’s an episode to get our conversation started.

This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.
