The primary talking point of this event will focus on our practice as a science and our struggle with expanding our work into other areas of practice. The primary point of this talk will be to illuminate the struggles and barriers that behavior analysis experiences, including the barriers we have created ourselves. This will also serve as a call to action to “do better” both internally and externally as a field of practice.
